Sustainable Transport & Mobility Research Group (STMRG)

The Sustainable Transport & Mobility Research Group (STMRG) is a group of multi-disciplinary researchers based within TU Dublin. STMRG and its members have a uniquely multi-disciplinary approach, with a core interest in progressing engaged and active research in sustainable transport and mobility policy and practice, both in Ireland and internationally.  STMRG’s multi-disciplinarity and focus on sustainability within the built environment is enhanced through continuous engagement with industry, civic society and academic discourse. 

Independent Evaluation & Monitoring of Sustainable Infrastructure

STMRG are currently engaged in a ground-breaking and innovative research programme with Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council.
