Dan Sheehan leads transportation programs for the Transportation Planning Board at the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments, where he directs Commuter Connections, the metropolitan Washington region's flagship commuter-focused congestion management program. Over the past 8 years, he has grown and modernized the program's suite of services, which include carpool ridematching, Guaranteed Ride Home, and CommuterCash incentives, into a fully integrated transportation demand management platform serving more than 40,000 commuters annually. A key focus of his work has been securing and deploying competitive federal grants from the FTA and FHWA to advance the technology infrastructure behind these services, keeping the program at the leading edge of regional smart mobility solutions. Before joining Commuter Connections, Dan managed the development and launch of the Gohio Commute program at the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission. The program was developed alongside the city's Obama-era Smart Cities initiatives and launched with seed funding from the state's Local Government Innovation Fund, successfully translating innovation funding into working commuter technology. He holds a Bachelor's degree in City and Regional Planning and a Master's degree in Public Policy and Management, both from Ohio State University.
