Can LA Lead in Transportation Innovation? A Conversation with Ashley Hand

Today's LA#itself features a conversation Ashley Hand, the City of Los Angeles' Transportation Technology Strategist fellow from 2016-2017 and co-founder of smart cities consulting firm CityFi, as well as the country's first woman to serve as a municipality's Chief Innovation Officer in Kansas City, Missouri from 2013-2015. We discuss the final report she wrote for her fellowship, Urban Mobility in a Digital Age: A Transportation Technology Strategy for Los Angeles, which proposes how we can use technology to make LA's mobility network efficient, reliable, and truly multi-modal. If we can do it here, surely it can be done anywhere else in the United States.
