This episode of the Environmental Technical Assistance Program or ETAP Podcast interviews Laura Rogers, deputy director of The Ray, to examine the future of roadways in America.
Founded in 2014, The Ray is a Georgia-based corporate venture devoted to roadway technology testing and collaborates with a number of state departments of transportation across the country. For example, in 2019, it formed a public-private-philanthropic partnership with the Georgia Department of Transportation to create and install a digital testing environment focused on critical interstate use cases, such as crash and weather warnings, for stakeholder engagement and education.
