In a time of unprecedented budgetary challenges and massive cuts to transportation funding, stretching the state's increasingly limited transportation dollar to its fullest is more important than ever. In appointing Bay Area Council CEO Sunne McPeak state Secretary of Business, Housing &Transportation, Governor Schwarzenegger made good on his promise to bring the best and the brightest into his cabinet. Metro Investment Report is pleased to present this interview with Sunne, in which she discusses the need to quantify the value of our transportation investments, the benefits of linking transportation and housing funds, and the need to promote regional economies as a way to get California back on the track of economic growth and prosperity.
