## Resource

What does it take to move the world’s fourth-largest economy every single day? As one of the most complex transportation systems in the world, California is at the forefront of the next generation in mobility. 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.
