Key buyers include the National Transport Authority (NTA), Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), Bus Eireann, Irish Rail, local authorities, and the Department of Transport. The sector is increasingly focused on sustainability, with electric vehicle fleets, low-emission public transport, and active travel infrastructure featuring heavily in recent tenders.
