State Departments of Transportation (DOTs)

State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) are government agencies responsible for managing and improving transportation systems within a state. They oversee the construction, maintenance, and operation of highways, bridges, public transit, and other transportation infrastructure. DOTs also develop transportation policies, ensure safety regulations, and work to enhance mobility for residents and businesses. Their activities include planning projects, allocating funding, and coordinating with local governments and federal agencies to create an efficient transportation network that supports economic growth and public safety.
