Talking Headways: A Streetsblog Podcast


The Talking Headways podcast is a weekly podcast about transportation and urban design.

Mar 28, 2024

This week we’re sharing a San Francisco Planning and Urban Research (SPUR) forum on how a statewide coalition of transit advocates were able to organize a funding bridge to avert a fiscal cliff for transit operators in the state. The discussion led by SPUR’s Laura Tolkoff, shares how they did it and what’s next.

Featured guests include...

Laura Tolkoff / Interim Chief Policy Officer & Transportation Policy Director, SPUR      

Rebecca Long / Director, Legislation & Public Affairs, Bay Area Metro      

Cyrus Hall / Independent Sustainable Transportation Advocate      

Zack Deutsch-Gross / Policy Director, Transform CA
