Who is Jarrett Walker?

Mike Orr says:


Click on “Human Transit” in the right sidebar. He’s a transit planning consultant from Portland who’s now based in Australia, but he has consulted for many North American cities including Seattle. He has a number of provocative and well-thought ideas for improving transit, which are best found in his blog.

Is the presentation available as it is hard to see in the video.

Mike Orr says:


His most recent blog post says, “So far, I’ve resisted calls to put the Powerpoint slides on the web because my slides are usually a visual counterpoint to what I’m saying, not just a summary of it, so I don’t like them getting detached from my narration of them. But at the very least, I will post a final version of the slides with notes containing the gist of what I said, after the Vancouver event.”

This talk is so utterly fantastic! Really wish I hadn’t been out of town that day.

Thank you so much for posting this! I’ve been following Human Transit for a while now and it’s great to actually hear the man.
