Ian Lockwood P.E., Livable Transportation Engineer 01/10 by High Noon in Lake Worth | Politics Podcasts

Join your host Wes Blackman as he welcomes Ian Lockwood to the High Noon in Lake Worth studios. Some of you may recall that Mr. Lockwood was the transportation planner for the City of West Palm Beach and while there instituted some significant changes to the city's transportation network. According to his bio, Ian has Bachelor & Masters Degrees in Civil Engineering from Carleton University & is a Harvard University Loeb Fellow. As the former City Transportation Planner for the City of West Palm Beach (1996 to 2001), Ian led changes to the state arterials & local streets to help evolve the City’s blighted condition into one of economic & social health. Ian’s current work includes aligning infrastructure investments with community goals through walkability projects, restoring 1-way streets to 2-way, shared spaces, main street design, taming arterials, campus design, downtown design, parking strategies, & policy reform. Ian has guest lectured at several universities & is occasionally interviewed on National Public Radio. For fun, he does photography, cartooning, & road cycling. 

It should prove to be an interesting show in light of the city of Lake Worth's preparation of the 2020 plan. Click title for link to live show tomorrow, Friday at noon or afterward for archived version of the show. Leave questions as comments below.
