Deputy Director Honored by Women's Group

The local chapter of the Women's Transportation Seminar (WTS) has named Therese W. McMillan, MTC's deputy director for policy, its 2002 Member of the Year.

McMillan is being honored both for her leadership role within the WTS, as well as for spearheading coalitions around critical transportation issues regionally and at the state level. The principal architect of the recently adopted Regional Transit Expansion Program, which sets priorities for the next generation of rail and rapid bus expansion projects in the Bay Area, McMillan also is a member of the Transportation Research Board's Committee on Intergovernmental Relations and Policy Processes and in 1998Ð99 served as chair of the statewide Regional Transportation Planning Agencies group.

Energetic and hard-working, McMillan also is firm about balancing her outside commitments with the needs of her two young children — traits that make her a "role model to others in the organization," in the words of the WTS.
