@SkuzinskiThomas Not as knowledgeable on #energypolicy but @LizaBReed may have some recs!

[PublicTransportation @APTA_Transit]

Happy Labor Day to the #publictransit workers who help keep the trains (and buses, light rails, trolleys, paratransit services, ferries & more) running on time! Their work day in and day out help make local communities and economies strong. #Voices4Transit

The Inflation Reduction Act earmarked $3 billion for Neighborhood Access and Equity Grants. We're hoping to see funds reconnect Latino and Black communities divided up in the 1950s by removing roads, highways, and other damaging infrastructure. https://t.co/gmwWe5OkgV

@AshleySimmonsDC @CostaSamaras Thank you Ashley! 😁

[Allanté V. Whitmore, PhD @AllanteWhitmore]

This was the biggest surprise of graduation weekend. Thank you @CostaSamaras for your support! Truly icing on the cake.

Dr. @AllanteWhitmore also received the Bhakta and Sushama Rath Research Award from the College of Engineering for her excellent dissertation!

[Shared-Use Mobility Center @SharedUseCenter]

@Princeton And @AllanteWhitmore from SAFE adds that integrating SAVs and shuttles are not be a one-size-fits-all solution. She developed a data model that looks at where automated mobility can supplement transit in areas that have poor transit coverage.

@dustyfoot4life Thanks Ernest!

[Allanté V. Whitmore, PhD @AllanteWhitmore]

Looking forward to sharing my research today! Grateful for my advisors and committee for the support to get me to this point

[Allanté V. Whitmore, PhD @AllanteWhitmore]

A common thread I'm picking up: We need a national regulatory framework for AVs that considers (1) safety, (2) workforce impacts/retraining plan and (3) infrastructure considerations for the technology.
