This week we've got a fascinating discussion from the Live.Ride.Share conference in Denver earlier this year.

Speakers include:

    • Mark Dowd, deputy assistant secretary for research and technology at U.S. DOT
    • Amanda Eaken, deputy director of the Urban Solutions Program at NRDC
    • Emily Castor, director of transportation policy at Lyft
