In conversation with Toks Omishakin, Secretary of Transportation, California State Transportation Agency.
California is known for setting the pace: the state’s regulation on air quality, emissions and fuel standards has long set precedence not only in the US, but globally. However, Toks Omishakin, secretary of transportation under California government Gavin Newsom, makes it clear that the state cannot stay ahead with policy alone, but needs to invest. He sets out state and federal funding opportunities for automotive, freight and logistics projects, as well as initiatives to improve safety and equality across the state’s transport network.
