Over the past year, I’ve had the privilege of being part of TriMet’s A Better Red project, and let me tell you—it’s been an exhilarating journey! - Supporting Through Challenges: As the project unfolded, we’ve been in the thick of things—navigating major service disruptions, coordinating construction impacts within the agency, and planning for collaboration during major concurrent project work. It’s been a dynamic role, and I’ve witnessed firsthand the dedication of TriMet, the project team, and the contractor. - Gateway North MAX Station: A Milestone: This week, we celebrated a significant milestone—the opening of the Gateway North MAX station. It’s the first new station in nine years, and it’s a game-changer for our community. Commuters now have new access to this vital transit hub and Gateway Green, and can have a more reliable connection throughout Portland Metro! - Reliability Boost: The icing on the cake? MAX Red Line trains are now cruising on a double set of tracks between the Gateway area and the re-built Portland International Airport station. This improvement enhances reliability across the entire MAX system. - TriMet’s Resilience: But let’s talk about resilience. In January, Mother Nature threw us a curveball—a winter weather event that coated the region and our construction site in a thick layer of ice. Did it slow us down? Not for long! TriMet and the contractor rallied, got the system back on track, and dove into construction. - Looking Ahead: As we gear up for one more service disruption to complete critical tie-in work at Fair Complex/Hillsboro Airport, I’m excited about the next phase. Come August 2024, all of this work and new improvements will be handed over to TriMet, ushering in full revenue service. - Kudos to TriMet and Partners: The complexity of concurrent project work, the challenges overcome, and the unwavering commitment—it’s a testament to what collaboration can achieve in this regionally significant project. Let’s keep the momentum going!
We were excited to officially open the new Gateway North MAX Station in Portland alongside our partners this morning. Thank you to Metro, the Port of Portland, the Oregon Department of Transportation and the City of Portland for their support of this important transit expansion!

Speramus Meliora; Resurget Cineribus While its transportation future needs to be clarified, for the first time in almost 40 years, Michigan Central will be a central hub connecting the city. Here are my 3️⃣ biggest questions: 🚂 Can Michigan Central replace Amtrak's New Center station? 🇨🇦 Can Michigan Central connect rail service to Canada? 🔗 Michigan Central can connect Mexicantown, Corktown, and Downtown, helping make Detroit more of a truly connected city.

Grateful to Canadian Parking Association for publishing my article on “EV Charging the New Gold Rush” (pg 26 of their “Parker” magazine - link below) which is based on a series of presentations I did in 2023. https://lnkd.in/giRRXV2q While the headline is purposefully attention grabbing, the principal is relatively simple: 1. SFU locates charging infrastructure where it is useable by different stakeholder groups at different times e.g. students & employees during the day, visitors, users of our amenities, and shoppers during evenings & weekends, and residents of nearby apartments at night. 2. SFU has public chargers that are truly public – anyone can use them. 3. By following #1 and #2 we are “flowing electrons” an average of 10.5 hrs per day per charging port – creating a new revenue stream for SFU, but more importantly providing the kind of public charging that various levels of government need to meet their sustainable transportation goals. Working with partners to expand SFU’s experiences to more organizations – hoping to have more on that this summer.

Some interesting facts…..the first bus lane in the US was built in 1969. When I saw this, I did a quick check on when the first bus lane in London was built…..and it was in 1968. And that was on Vauxhall bridge. So the US built its first bus lane just one year after London. For me, this implies that public transport did have a significant role in the US transportation system at some point. Inspite of the country’s big car culture, the fact that someone deemed it fit to implement a bus lane in 1969 says a lot. So the question everyone would ask is, when did US public transport become an option of last resort? The good news is, public transport awareness in the US is growing daily and with the threat of global warming, it can only get better. #publictransport
Did you know? The first exclusive bus lane on an urban highway, the Shirley Highway Busway, opened in September 1969 to carry commuters between northern Virginia and downtown Washington DC. FTA and FHWA collaborated with local transit authorities, including Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) and Virginia Department of Transportation to set up the innovative project, which immediately cut commuting times by an average of 15 minutes, decreased congestion and air pollution, and demonstrated the potential benefits of bus-only lanes to move transit riders more quickly and efficiently. After 1974, carpools were also permitted to use the lanes. Today, FTA supports bus rapid transit, many in exclusive lanes, to deliver fast and efficient service across the country.
