Our Steering Committee
MobilityXX is guided by a steering committee comprised of the most powerful women in transportation who will oversee the work completed throughout the course of the project; beginning with proposal development and continuing through the five-year program if selected. Each program area will include an advisory work group of women from across the industry who will support the management team in the development, implementation, measurement and benchmarking of program initiatives.
