Your Call: How can we improve transit as our cities become more crowded?

On the July 30th edition of Your Call, we'll talk about transportation in the Bay Area and South Bay.

If you've driven across the Golden Gate Bridge, taken public transportation, or commute to Silicon Valley, you've felt the impact of the population boom. What can we do to cope with the growing pressures on public transportation and our roads? How are city officials responding? What solutions would you propose? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you. 

Guests:

Daniel Chatman, associate professor of City and Regional Planning at UC Berkeley

Joël Ramos, regional planner with TransForm, a statewide organization whose mission is to build a movement to transform our communities and transportation
