The Infrastructure Working Group (IWG) primarily addresses transportation structures including bridges and tunnels. IWG supports the development and use of rating systems, codes, and standards that encourage and quantify sustainability and green design/construction/maintenance. The objectives of the Infrastructure Working Group are:
- Advocate for the acceptance of green/sustainability project rating systems within the bridge and tunnel industries.
-
Monitor, comment on, and engage with the various emerging sustainability project rating systems that apply to infrastructure, including Envision and Greenroads.
- Collect case study examples of sustainable infrastructure best practices that have been successfully implemented.
