“The Greater Houston Partnership is dedicated to building economic prosperity in the Houston region. Governor Perry’s appointment of Deirdre Delisi and Bill Meadows to the Texas Transportation Commission is a positive step toward building the transportation infrastructure critical to the economic success of our state and region. Deirdre and Bill are proven, visionary leaders who understand the challenges we face and the integral role transportation plays in the future success of the Houston region and the entire state of Texas,” added Moseley.

One out of every four Texans calls the Houston region home. It boasts a thriving business climate with more than 2.6 million workers, one of the country’s busiest international airports and rail centers, as well as one of the largest ship ports in the world. All depend on a transportation system that can move people and products in real time.
