High Speed Transit Forum…
San Diego, California
California is talking about high speed transit systems—and governor Arnold Schwartzenegger is passionate about the estimated 133,000 new jobs that implementation could stimulate.
The Design Innovation Institute (aka Dii, of which I am an Advisory Board member) is hosting the TRANSITions | High Speed Transit Forum event (which will look at innovative, alternative transit modalities) on 12 November. Arnold is expected to speak, along with U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders, Dii Founder and Board Chairman Calvin Woo, and a blue-chip panel of architects, urban planners, professors, and transportation industry leaders.
