Our structure
How our organisation is structured to help deliver on our mission.
The Road Safety Authority (RSA) was established in 2006 as a statutory public body under the Road Safety Authority Act 2006 (An tAcht Fán Údarás Um Shábháilteacht Ar Bhóithre, 2006)
The RSA is an agency of the Department of Transport and has its own non-executive board as well as its own leadership team team.
Since 2006, the role of the RSA has expanded and statutory functions have been added to our core road safety remit.
Our internal structure
Our executive is structured as five core directorates. This helps us to better deliver on our road safety mandate and mission and deliver the public services and functions we are responsible for.
