Randy Clarke – Capital Metro

“I love what we do as an industry. What we do really matters.”

Today's guest originally hails from the neighbor to the North in the province of Nova Scotia. But after making his way to the USA, he spent some time at MBTA before settling in at Capital Metro (CapMetro) in Austin, Texas. Randy Clarke, President and CEO of CapMetro, joins Transit Unplugged to discuss CapMetro’s Project Connect plan which is set to transform the future of transit for Central Texas. He also goes into their Cap Remap program which redefined the routes in Austin by focusing on a grid style network, reflecting the new development of the city, and frequency - which has helped increase ridership in Austin.
