The Metropolitan Transportation Commission, the region’s transportation planning and funding agency, is recruiting 27 individuals for its Policy Advisory Council, an advisory committee created by the Commission.

The mission of the Council is to advise MTC on transportation-related policies in the nine-county San Francisco Bay Area, incorporating diverse perspectives regarding the environment, the economy and social equity.

As advisors, individuals will be asked to advise on a range of topics including regional planning efforts linking transportation, housing and land use plans to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from cars and light-duty trucks, and public transit service productivity improvements, among other topics. Whether you are a community activist or a business professional, there could be a seat for you.
