Its core mission is to ensure that transport services are delivered in a manner that protects the environment, promotes social well-being, and maintains the highest standards of health and safety for employees, contractors, passengers, and the broader communities. The ESHS process involves the identification of ways of improving project selection, planning, design, and implementation by preventing, mitigating, or compensating for adverse environmental and social impacts and enhancing positive impacts.
