Prior to joining VHB, Wang was instrumental in advancing major transit projects in the Atlanta metro region, including the Campbellton Corridor High-Capacity Transit project. Her transit planning insight helped launch a major transit initiative to improve mobility and revitalize communities in Southwest Atlanta. As part of this effort, she led the Alternatives Analysis to identify the locally preferred alternative that will be adopted by the MARTA Board in summer 2021.
Wang also led the planning and early design efforts to advance MARTA’s first Arterial Rapid Transit (ART) projects to invest in mobility options that provide fast and frequent service with enhanced transit amenities scaled to communities in need.
Wang brings 15 years of transportation planning in cities large and small, and a passion for expanding mobility options to underserved communities. She understands the importance of stakeholder engagement in multimodal and active transportation initiatives that have an immediate, positive impact on the places where people live, work, and play.
In her new role at VHB, Wang will draw upon years serving transit agencies to help clients move projects forward. She will work with interdisciplinary teams on a portfolio of transit projects ranging from transit feasibility studies, mobility hub design, stakeholder engagement, alternative analyses, transit-oriented development, and long-range plans for regional and statewide organizations.
