On October 15, 2024, Prof. Hyun Woo “Chris” Lee presented findings of his research project to the Washington State Transportation Commission, focusing on the application of public-private partnerships (P3) for converting electric bus bases to support a zero-emission fleet. Funded by King County Metro through the UW Mobility Innovation Center, the project aimed to assess policy barriers that may hinder agencies from entering P3 agreements and to identify industry best practices for project and contract development.
