Jarrett Walker (born 1962) is an American author and transit consultant. He founded his consultancy firm, Jarrett Walker + Associates, in 2011 and has worked on redesigns for transit systems in numerous cities in North America and Oceania. Walker released a book on transit design, entitled Human Transit, in 2011, and has also authored a blog of the same name since then.

Early life and education

Walker was raised in Portland, Oregon, where he became interested in transit issues while using the TriMet bus system.[1]

  • Undergraduate program with TriMet

Career

  • Nelson Nygaard, TransLink, McCormick, MRCagney[2]
  • Major redesigns: Houston, Columbus, Richmond, Salem[3]
    • Philadelphia (2017)?
    • Dublin (2018) generated controversy[4]

Walker gained a significant amount of media attention as a result of a dispute he had with Elon Musk.[5][6] In December 2017, Musk expressed his disdain for public transit and reiterated his preference for individual transportation in response to an audience question during the Neural Information Processing Systems Conference.[7] Walker criticized him on Twitter, stating that "Musk's hatred of sharing space with strangers is a luxury (or pathology) that only the rich can afford," referring to the theory that planning a city around the preferences of a minority yields an outcome that usually does not work for the majority.[7][8] Musk responded with "You're an idiot," later saying "Sorry [...] Meant to say 'sanctimonious idiot.'"[9] This dispute led to a broader debate about Musk's opinions on transit, including during a segment on Fox Business Network in which Walker spoke with Stuart Varney,[10] and prompted an outpouring of people sharing their stories of the connections and community formed on transit, using the hashtag #GreatThingsThatHappenedonTransit.[9]
