Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdam Millard-Ball is a Professor of Urban Planning at UCLA who researches how cities can cut greenhouse gas emissions—especially from transportation—by studying street networks, walking and bicycling, parking policy, and climate action planning. He directs the UCLA Institute of Transportation Studies and serves as Review Editor for the Journal of the American Planning Association, bridging rigorous academic research with practical policy influence. Trained at Stanford (PhD) and Edinburgh (MA), he teaches data-driven courses in urban and environmental economics and climate change planning and investigates both which mitigation policies work and why cities adopt them. With over a decade of academic experience and earlier practice as a transportation consultant and editor, he combines empirical analysis with real-world implementation insight, often focusing on the institutional and behavioral drivers behind municipal climate action.
