2025 Visioning Session Silicon Valley

Abstract: 

As part of his coast-to-coast intermodal tour, U.S. Secretary of Transportation Rodney E. Slater took part in a roundtable discussion with several Silicon Valley transportation industry stakeholders and political dignitaries in attendance. The topic, 2025 Visioning Sessions, which was designed to highlight some of the best ideas in transportation and transportation technology, challenged the best and brightest of Silicon Valley transportation leaders to share their ideas for inclusion in the 2025 Transit Choices Report, which will be presented at an international transportation symposium later this year in Washington, D.C.
