Last March, Chile had a change in national government, which brought two new roles for Juan Carlos Muñoz, the Director of our Centre: he is now the Personal Advisor to the Director of Dirección de Transporte Público Metropolitano (Santiago’s Public Transport Agency) and he is also a member of the Board of Directors of Metro de Santiago (Santiago’s subway). His role as advisor of the Dirección de Transporte Público Metropolitano is mainly focused in operational improvements for Transantiago system, while in Metro he will push for more and better intermodal integration. These are great news for our Centre of Excellence, because of the strong focus we have on implementing in cities the results of our research.
