ABOUT THIS EPISODE

A City in Motion

How a city moves shapes more than the commute — it influences access, opportunity, and daily life. In this season preview of Connections, we introduce the vision behind the podcast and the stories you’ll hear throughout the series.

Through the voices of Birmingham residents and city leaders — including Angel Holloway, Timothy Miller, and James Fowler of the Birmingham Department of Transportation — this episode sets the tone for conversations about movement, access, and what it means to navigate a city in motion.

Connections is a podcast from goBHM exploring how Birmingham moves — and the people who move it.

 

Connections is goBHM’s official podcast, produced in partnership with the Birmingham Department of Transportation (BDOT) and the Birmingham-Jefferson County Transit Authority (BJCTA) as part of the Multimodal Transportation Plan.

Produced, written, and hosted by: Ebony Flake
