Corridor Leadership
Our Dedicated Team
The leadership structure of the TransAmerica Corridor, Inc. reflects a strong grassroots approach to future interstate governance, guided by local and regional leadership across the twelve-state corridor. The organization will be governed by a volunteer Board of Directors composed of economic development officials and business leaders representing each state along the corridor. Supporting the Board is an Economic Development Council, whose executive committee serves as the organization’s Advisory Board, along with professional staff and technical consultants providing expertise in communications, policy, planning, engineering, and infrastructure development. Together, this collaborative leadership structure is dedicated to strengthening economic connectivity, advancing transportation infrastructure, and positioning the corridor for sustained regional growth and national competitiveness.
