Commitment to achieving Net Zero
Traffic Group Signals is committed to reducing GHG emissions by 65% by 2030.
We are committed to achieving short-term science-based targets, aligned with the goal of limiting warming to 1.5°C, aiming to reduce our carbon footprint by an average of 85% by 2030.
Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions: – 65% absolute reduction by 2030 from a FY24 baseline.
In addition to our short term targets, we have also committed to achieve Net Zero Carbon by 2050 at the latest.
Supporting the UK’s most important transport infrastructure means that reducing our carbon emissions is a business imperative. These ambitious targets demonstrate our commitment to delivering our services in the most sustainable way possible and to provide maximum value for money to our customers.
Baseline Emissions Footprint
Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.

Emissions reduction targets
In order to continue our progress to achieving Net Zero, several positive measures have been implemented through 2024. A strategy has been developed to reduce the overall emissions by 65% equating to a reduction of 224 TCO2 to a new baseline of 120 TCO2.
