He says COVID-19 points to the fragility of our infrastructure. They also discuss: The ASCE Infrastructure Report Card and what the new grade means for our infrastructure. Why we need to invest in our infrastructure and improve equity. If the fuel tax is sufficient to continue the investment we need in our highways, how EVs (electric vehicles) fit into the equation, and how to pay for highways. ibtta.org (03.30.21 - #712) IoT, Internet of Things, Peggy Smedley, artificial intelligence, machine learning, big data, digital transformation, cybersecurity, blockchain, 5G cloud, sustainability, future of work, podcast
