Regional Transportation Planner
SANDAG’s 2030 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) includes plans for high occupancy toll or “HOT” lanes on our major north-south freeways, including Interstates 5, 15, and 805, as well as a portion of State Route 52. These lanes are limited access lanes in which carpools, vanpools, and buses have first priority and travel for free, while other vehicles gain access by paying a fee. The lanes are managed through variable pricing to maintain free-flow conditions even during rush hours.
The Transportation Planner will be a member of the Project Implementation group and will play a key role in the design and delivery of high occupancy toll (HOT) lane facilities on the region’s freeways. This position also is integral to developing and implementing programs and services that advance the region’s transportation demand management (TDM) and systems management strategic plans.
This position is ideal for a planning or engineering professional with a strong interest in furthering their expertise in the development and implementation of regional tolling systems. We anticipate significant career development will occur while working on the types of duties and responsibilities described below and through mentoring and close collaboration with senior staff.
Qualifications: A bachelor’s degree with major course work in transportation or urban planning, transportation engineering, public administration, or related field and one to three years of progressive career development in the field of regional congestion management or transportation planning. A Masters degree is desirable.
