Transportation and Infrastructure
From helping folks get to work, school and necessary medical appointments to helping those who find themselves in food deserts access grocery stores, the necessity of massive investments in equitable and accessible transportation on the lives of Pittsburghers, and Americans more broadly, cannot be overstated. The transportation sector of our economy is undergoing a revolution. In the past decade, advances in sensing technologies, computing power and wireless communications coupled with AI and machine learning are directly addressing the quality and the quantity of the transport of people and goods.
