The Sound Transit Board of Directors unanimously voted to appoint Peter M. Rogoff, former Federal Transit Administrator and the federal government’s third-highest transportation official, to serve as Sound Transit’s new CEO. Mr. Rogoff will succeed current CEO Joni Earl, who announced last May that she will retire in the first quarter of 2016 after Sound Transit opens the University Link light rail extension. These are Mr. Rogoff’s remarks after the Board’s vote.
The initial phase of the XpressWest project, which will link Las Vegas to Victorville, Calif., will cost $8 billion.
The new office will house INIT’s staff including their engineering, development, sales, customer support, information technology, project management and administrative departments.
Will distribute warning-signal products and provide installation services to commercial and emergency vehicles, school buses, fire trucks and police cars.
The new regulations create an ongoing program that builds off an 18-month pilot set to expire at the end of January 2016. The fee charged to shuttle operators will increase to pay for stepped-up enforcement.
