Listen "Mailbag & Reflections"
Episode Synopsis
In this special episode of Shaping Charlotte, Clayton Sealey and Tesho Akindele take a step back to reflect on what they’ve learned so far from conversations about Charlotte’s future.
From the opportunities of the PAVE Act to the balance of roads, buses, and rail in the region’s $20B transit plan, they explore what it really means to build a safe, connected, and livable city.
They also dive into listener questions from Twitter and Instagram—tackling everything from train timelines and headways to neighborhood growth, safety concerns, and the future of Gateway Station.
It’s part reflection, part mailbag, and a full dose of the honest, community-driven conversation that defines Shaping Charlotte.
