Translink Awarded For Commitment To Biodiversity
Translink NI has again been awarded Platinum Level in the Business & Biodiversity Charter by Business in the Community, in partnership with Ulster Wildlife, for its outstanding commitment to protecting and enhancing biodiversity across its extensive property and infrastructure portfolio.
