Talking Headways Podcast: Transit Predictions for 2017

Photo: SFCTA

This week we’re joined by Yonah Freemark, author of the Transport Politic and Streetsblog’s new series Getting Transit Right. Each year, Yonah and I predict what's in store for transit in the next 12 months and break down the results of last year's transit predictions. In between, Yonah and I talk about high-speed rail, transit and development, Elon Musk’s crazy tunnel ideas, and the future of federal policy.
