About Lex Powers

I am a trained transportation planner and urban designer dedicated to making complicated transportation networks, processes, and projects easy to understand for everyone. As SEPTA\'s first Director of Service Information Design, I led the redesign of our wayfinding system - from signs to maps, apps and websites, nomenclature to data feeds - using a process that is heavily research based and data driven, involving thousands of riders, employees, and stakeholders. Now, as SEPTA’s head of Customer Experience, it’s my job to apply that same pragmatic process to improve the customer journey from start to finish.
