About Egis in Ireland

Egis has operated in Ireland since 1959 and is one of the largest multi-disciplinary consultancy, engineering and operations firms in the country. Our services in Ireland span the full lifespan of infrastructure, from upstream feasibility studies through design, construction supervision, delivery and operations. Operating across the entire value chain of consulting, design and operation, Egis is the only group to understand infrastructure in its entirety. Our current activities in Ireland include operating the Dublin Tunnel and the Jack Lynch Tunnel in Cork, overseeing 1200km of Ireland’s motorways and working on the design and delivery of major transport projects and mobility services.

The Egis engineering division is now almost 200 people strong across four offices in Dublin, Castlebar, Cork and Limerick.
