Meet DE's Lead Transportation Planner

"As a transportation planning professional I enjoy working with government, stakeholders, and residents to achieve the objectives of a high quality livable community, encouraging modal choice through accessibility and mobility enhancements, and planning safety improvements for all modes of transportation.

Also, as a father of a 7 year old who is beginning to ride a bike, the son of aging parents, and as someone who suffers occasionally with mobility issues, all of these come to mind while planning intersections and corridors so that the communities I serve can accommodate all users and their needs safely."  - Ross Liner, AICP, PTP
