Tracy Lehman
As a LeadershipITE graduate, member of the Georgia ITE Safety and LITE committees, former representative to the Southern District Board, and past Illinois Section President, Tracy continually provides value and guidance to the transportation engineering industry. Outside of her professional commitments, she volunteers her time to engage in engineering outreach events, speak in student classrooms, and lead discussions for organizational student chapter meetings. It is important to her to share the lessons she’s learned from both her professional experience and from mentors who have invested their time to teach her engineering concepts—something Tracy credits as her reason for becoming an engineer.
Currently, Tracy chairs the ITE Transportation and Health working group which is in the process of transitioning to a Standing Committee under the Transportation Planning Council and Coordinating Council. The group’s mission is to improve health outcomes in transportation infrastructure planning and design by developing, improving, sharing, and helping implement tools and strategies through partnerships between the transportation, urban/rural planning, and health communities.
