What’s it like to plan for the one of the largest and fastest growing counties in the United States? Listen in to find out as we talk to Denise Lacey, head of Transportation Planning for the Maricopa County Department of Transportation. This is the first in a series of interviews with Arizona transportation professionals who volunteer as mentors in the 2020 Women’s Transportation Seminar (WTS) Metro Phoenix Mentorship Program.

Arizona is one of the fastest growing, diverse, and interesting states in the United States. From the City of Phoenix, the fifth largest city in the U.S., to native nations, and some of the most breathtaking natural spaces in the world, our transportation infrastructure covers it all. The solutions to addressing the needs of our communities is often as unique as the challenges!  Welcome to Moving Arizona, the podcast for transportation professionals (aka “transportation geeks”) who want to hear from the people shaping our industry.
