The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) is an agency of the state government of Utah, United States; it is usually referred to by its initials UDOT (pronounced "you-dot"). UDOT is responsible for approximately 5,900 miles (9,495 kilometers) of state highways in Utah.[1] UDOT's purview extends to other transportation sectors including:
- aeronautics,[2][3]
- paved trails,[4][5][6]
- transit,[7]
- rail,[8][9][10]
- amusement park ride safety,[11][12]
- motor carriers and ports of entry,[13][14] and
- nautical.[15][16]
UDOT has three executive leaders.[17] The executive director is Carlos Braceras[18] with Lisa Wilson[19] and Ben Huot[20] as deputy directors. Project priorities are set forth by the independent Utah Transportation Commission,[21] which coordinates directly with the UDOT. UDOT's three strategic goals[22] include: Zero Fatalities,[23] Optimize Mobility,[24] and Preserve Infrastructure.[25] UDOT's jurisdiction, regulations, and service responsibilities are governed by Utah state law.[26]
Structure
The agency is headquartered in the Calvin L. Rampton State Office Complex in Taylorsville, Utah.[27] and employs approximately 1,800 people across the state.[22] The department is divided into 10 functional groups:[28] Project Development, Operations, Program Development, Transit and Trails, Technology and Innovation, Employee Development, Communications, Policy and Legislative Services, Audit, and Finance. The agency has 88 maintenance stations throughout the state[29] which are grouped into four administrative regions.[30]
| Region | Headquarters | Area | Ref. |
|---|---|---|---|
| One | Ogden | Box Elder, Cache, Davis, Morgan, Rich, and Weber counties | [31] |
| Two | Salt Lake City | Salt Lake, Summit, and Tooele counties | [32] |
| Three | Orem | Daggett, Duchesne, Juab, Uintah, Utah (except SR-96 and a portion of US-6), and Wasatch counties |
[33] |
| Four | Richfield | Beaver, Carbon, Emery, Garfield, Grand, Iron, Kane, Millard, Piute, San Juan, Sanpete, Sevier, Washington, and Wayne counties, as well as a small portion of Utah County |
