Comments on: Want to Shape Pedestrian Planning? http://seattletransitblog.com/2009/12/01/want-to-shape-pedestrian-planning/ Transit in the Greater Seattle Area Sat, 26 May 2012 01:46:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: John http://seattletransitblog.com/2009/12/01/want-to-shape-pedestrian-planning/#comment-86463 John Tue, 01 Dec 2009 20:04:00 +0000 http://seattletransitblog.com/?p=10301#comment-86463 I'll second Martin's recommendation - and add that Seattle's pedestrian community needs all the help we can get! SDOT is doing some good things, we have a new Mayor who is pretty familiar with pedestrian concerns, the Pedestrian Master Plan needs to be implemented (and funded)...there's a lot going on. If you're looking for volunteer opportunities, we can always use help at Feet First as well (see below). John Stewart Feet First www.feetfirst.info

Even if I was a Seattle resident right now it could interfere with the job search that I'll be starting soon. Could I do a tad bit of self promotion and say that I'll soon start looking for a job? I'll be graduating in June with a masters in transportation engineering from the UW. My undergraduate background is urban planning and civil engineering and during school I have worked at TCC on parking and transportation policy issues, at WSDOT at the traffic management center, and at the Transpo Group doing ITS design. I have written for the blog since February. You can see a copy of my old resume at http://students.washington.edu/adambp/Adam_Parast_030309_Modified.pdf
