If former MassDOT Director Stephanie Pollack needed a guinea pig for exciting transportation experiments, Everett was willing to be the test subject, and Mayor Carlo DeMaria and Pollack forged a partnership over the last six years that brought about such exciting pilot programs that have now spread across the region.

Pollack, who focused in on Everett early six years ago due to the City’s willingness to lead and pay for initiatives, announced last week that she was leaving MassDOT to become Deputy Administrator of the Federal Highway Administration under new President Joe Biden. Leaving a state Republican Administration for a federal Democratic Administration, Pollack left her job in Massachusetts on Tuesday, but was not forgotten in Everett.
‘Incredibly bittersweet,’ Gov. Charlie Baker says of MassDOT Secretary Stephanie Pollack being tapped for role in Biden administration

As the top transportation official in Massachusetts prepares to leave for a position in the Biden administration, Gov. Charlie Baker called the moment “incredibly bittersweet.”
Speaking with reporters Thursday, Baker spoke of his relationship with MassDOT Secretary and CEO Stephanie Pollack, who was named the deputy administrator of the Federal Highway Administration for the Biden-Harris Administration hours earlier.
Prior to Pollack joining the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, Baker said the two did not know one another. Her interview was scheduled on the recommendation of another and neither thought the appointment would work, the Republican governor said of Pollack, a Democrat.
