#97 – Transport Planning Masterclass with Gary McGregor (Part 3)

Doc Frank chats with Gary McGregor from Sydney in Australia, a seasoned transport strategist who was involved in developing key planning documents shaping the long-term rail strategy for Sydney. This talk has been split into three parts to get shorter episodes without losing the depth of longer conversations.

In this third part, expect to learn the difference between visionary and delusional transport planning, why execution eats strategy for breakfast, the importance of open debate for a robust strategy, how Sydney got to a collaborative culture of suburban and metro rail complementing each other, and much more.
