Beyond Streets Hosts Hang: What's Certain in these Uncertain Times

In this host-only episode, we dive into one of the most elusive forces in transportation and public life today: certainty—or the lack thereof.With some decent dad jokes, candor/wit, and the occasional turmeric-ginger tonic, we unpack what it means to move forward on transportation policy, planning, and research when funding is unpredictable, infrastructure is politicized, and communities are just trying to make it work. From the shifting fate of Safe Streets for All to LA's budget realities and Oakland’s “pothole vigilantes,” this conversation threads together the personal, political, and policy-driven forces shaping how cities build—and maintain—livable streets.Expect some takes on: How cities adapt when federal support waversWhat it means to weigh benefits vs. burdensThe politics of potholes, parklets, and Purple LinesWhether or not pilot projects are back And why defining value starts with community voiceHelp us grow: please rate, review, and subscribe! Reach out with questions, ideas, and feedback: [email protected] up with us on LinkedIn: Greg RogersGreg Rodriguez Samantha Roxaswww.beyondstreets.org
