Traffic Engineering Expertise on-board with CABO

I am pleased to announce that the California Association of Bicycling Organizations will benefit from the Traffic Engineering expertise, substantial history and involvement with bicycling advocacy of Robert (Bob) Shanteau.

Bob has been assisting CABO directors and advocating in his own right for improvements to conditions for bicycling for over 30 years and brings a wealth of experience, information and professional credentials to support CABO’s efforts.

Welcome Bob.
