Summary

Listen in as we sit down with Toks Omishakin, Secretary of the California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA), for a behind-the-scenes look at how California is preparing for global mega-events like the World Cup and the 2028 Olympics; the latest on high-speed rail projects; and how emerging technologies like automation and electrification have leaders rethinking mobility at scale.
