Lindsey Ferrari

Lindsey is a partner in Wilkinson Ferrari & Co. and is head of the agency’s transportation communications practice group. She has served in strategic roles on a variety of public agency projects to help project owners and government agencies understand and respond to the needs and perspectives of their publics. Lindsey believes that a public agency can be effective only when it takes the time and effort to seek accurate and representative feedback from the publics it serves.

Lindsey served in the unique role of director of communications for the Utah Department of Transportation’s Interstate 15 Reconstruction Project from 1996 to 2001. In that role, she worked as a liaison between UDOT and the Utah State Legislature, local governments, state agencies, the media and business organizations to build relationships and communicate important issues on behalf of UDOT. She also provided Department oversite for the Wasatch Constructors Public Information Team.

Other projects have included managing public relations efforts for SLC Rail Constructors, the design-build contractor for the Utah Transit Authority’s TRAX 4th South Project; public involvement consulting on the Utah County I-15 Interchange Planning Project; development of a UDOT stakeholder communications plan; and pre-construction communications planning for Denver’s Southeast Corridor Project (now called T-Rex).

Lindsey is currently managing the communications issues for Kennecott Land, a sister company to Kennecott Copper that was formed to develop the company’s massive land and water assets on Salt Lake’s west bench. She consults with the project’s leadership team on communications issues as they relate to transportation, environmental and economic development policy. She is also involved in a management role on other Wilkinson Ferrari & Co. projects including the Legacy Parkway Project and the Washington Department of Transportation’s I-405 Project.
