Transportation policy and planning expert Adam Zalma joins Steer

Adam ZalmaSteer is pleased to announce the appointment of Adam Zalma PhD as an Associate in our New York office.

Adam has more than two decades of experience across planning and policy, finance and investments, and research and analysis. His advisory work lies at the intersection of transportation planning, finance and infrastructure development.

As a consultant, Adam has guided state DOTs through policy changes in transportation finance and helped them think strategically about emerging public private partnerships. In his roles with governmental agencies and transportation operators, he helped develop an enterprise-level strategic railroad plan and capital investment prioritization methodology and coordinated between multiple agencies in the development of major infrastructure initiatives for New York City. 

In addition, Adam spent over a decade on Wall Street, including several years as the second-in-command for a billion-dollar bond fund invested in a variety of capital intensive-industries. His doctoral dissertation explores issues of placemaking, transportation and land use through the emerging 19th century metropolitan geography of New York.

At Steer, Adam will be leading our business and financial analysis work for clients across North America including progressing Boston’s MBTA transformational Rail Vision plans.
