Staff Groups
The primary function of TRA's management team is to implement board policy.
The general manager serves as the chief executive officer of TRA. Seven executive managers report to the general manager, and the leadership of TRA's facilities is divided into a Northern and a Southern Region office, located in Arlington and Huntsville, Texas, respectively.
