About Jennifer Dougherty

Strategic urban and transportation planner with extensive project management experience leading large-scale infrastructure, transit-oriented development (TOD), and long-range planning initiatives. Proven expertise in aligning land use planning, financial strategy, and multimodal transportation policies to drive sustainable, accessible, and community-focused outcomes. Currently overseeing major strategic planning and project management efforts at SEPTA, I lead programs such as the Transit-Oriented Communities (TOC) Program, station area planning, and capital project coordination. Skilled in financial modeling, zoning policy, stakeholder engagement, and infrastructure investment, I work across disciplines to ensure transit planning supports economic growth and regional connectivity. With a strong background in public sector project management, I excel at guiding cross-functional teams, managing consultant contracts, securing funding, and developing actionable policies. I am actively seeking new opportunities where I can leverage my skills in urban planning, transportation policy, and project leadership to shape impactful initiatives. Let’s connect to discuss how my work in strategic planning, project management, and stakeholder coordination can support your organization’s goals.
