Listen now
Description
In this episode, we ushered in the new year by getting together at TRB's 2024 meeting (a.k.a. the greatest transportation show on earth) and introducing our newest host, Sam Roxas.  Sam dove right in by sharing her transportation story, starting with her grandmother, who instilled the importance of walkable cities and their ability to create community and resilience for historically underserved communities. We're excited to bring Sam's experience in local government, insights on next-generation technology, and West Coast energy to the pod, so please join us in giving her a warm welcome!  Looking at the year ahead, we each shared what policies, programs, people, and places we’ll be watching in 2024. We had plenty of thoughts on IIJA implementation, the mysticism and curiosity swirling around AI, and our collective responsibility to take a more holistic, interdisciplinary approach to this big-bang moment in transportation.  What will you be focused on this year?  Keep up with us on LinkedIn: The Mobility Podcast Greg Rogers Greg Rodriguez Pete Gould Samantha Roxas Or find us on Twitter: The Mobility Podcast @MobilityPodcast Greg Rogers @MoveGreg Pete Gould @Pete_Gould Greg Rodriguez @SmarterTranspo Samantha Roxas @SamanthaRoxas
