ODOT

ODOT is an acronym used for state transportation agencies in the United States, most prominently the Oregon Department of Transportation and the Ohio Department of Transportation. These agencies are responsible for planning, building, and maintaining transportation systems within their respective states and for coordinating with federal transportation programs.

The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) is the state agency charged with transportation planning, construction, and maintenance of Oregon's highways and bridges, as well as related systems such as rail, air travel, and transit. It issues safety programs, oversees transportation funding and capital projects, and collaborates with regional and local governments to support mobility and economic activity.

The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) supervises the design, construction, and maintenance of Ohio's interstate and state highways, along with programs for aviation, rail, and public transportation. It manages funding for roadway improvements, safety initiatives, and connectivity across urban and rural areas, often in partnership with local governments and federal agencies.

Other uses: While these two departments are the best known, the acronym ODOT can appear in other contexts or organizations, occasionally referring to different departments or offices depending on the jurisdiction. In general, ODOT denotes a state-level transportation authority.
