About FDOT
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) mission is to provide a safe transportation system that ensures the mobility of people and goods, enhances economic prosperity and preserves the quality of our environment and communities.
The FDOT vision is to serve the people of Florida by delivering a transportation system that is fatality and congestion free.
FDOT is a decentralized agency in accordance with legislative mandates, composed of seven districts. Each of the districts is managed by a District Secretary. The districts vary in organizational structure, but in general, each has major divisions for Administration, Planning, Production, and Operations. Also, each district has a Public Information Office and General Counsel Office that report to the District Secretary.
