Author Information

Frank Markowitz is a highly experienced transportation planner and pedestrian safety specialist. His career has been split between public agencies and consulting firms. From 2000 to 2018, he managed pedestrian safety and other planning programs for the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA). There he co-led a major federally funded research project evaluating innovative pedestrian safety measures, along with the University of California at Berkeley. His SFMTA projects included consideration of street lighting conditions and improvement concepts, as well as transportation planning and engineering review for large land development projects, several encompassing entire new mixed-use neighborhoods. Frank initiated and presented two webinars that served as the basis for this book, for the University of North Carolina’s Pedestrian & Bicycle Information Center and the Association of Pedestrian & Bicycle Professionals. He was an appointed member of the Transportation Research Board (TRB) Pedestrian Committee and the San Mateo County Bicycle & Pedestrian Advisory Committee. He led two national technical committees of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). He also prepared over 25 conference presentations, papers, and articles for organizations such as ITE, TRB, the Urban Land Institute, and the American Planning Association. Early in his career, he worked as a research associate for a behavioral sciences research institute and a data analyst for a metropolitan county public health agency. He holds master’s degrees in urban planning and health science.
