This week we're back and Han Solo but we're covering lots of things including the thinking differently about our transportation investments around the country, the sillyness of cutting property taxes in states, and thinking more about tenant investment vehicles.  Much more of course! Stay tuned.

This week on the Talking Headways podcast we're joined by recent USC PhD graduate Wendy Zhou to discuss her dissertation, which focuses on dynamic accessibility. We talk about how static maps without a time based dimension don't tell the whole story on access and the idea of a people based accessibility.

This week we're away at a conference, but we're flashing back to episode 542 where we're joined once again by professor Karel Martens. We learn about how transportation engineering is good at measuring only one problem and ignoring others and a new tool to determine the success of transportation systems.
