On behalf of Governor Martin O'Malley, welcome to the Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT). MDOT is responsible for building, operating and maintaining a safe and seamless transportation network that links Maryland with the rest of the country, and the world. This website serves as a gateway to all the services and opportunities that MDOT has to offer.
MDOT directs and oversees the planning, construction and operation of Maryland's highway, transit, maritime and aviation facilities, as well as the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration. All five modes fall under the direction of the Transportation Secretary. They are funded by a common funding source, Maryland's Transportation Trust Fund. The Transportation Trust Fund is separate from the state's general fund with its revenues dedicated to operating Maryland's world-class transportation network.
This unique, streamlined approach provides the state's leadership with the ability to develop a coordinated and balanced approach to transportation. Under the direction of the Transportation Secretary, the five modal administrations work together, wherever possible, to assist each other in the development of a seamless transportation system designed to fuel Maryland's economy and enhance the quality of life of our citizens.
As you browse our homepage, I hope you will take the opportunity to review the links to literally dozens of the services MDOT provides. At the top of the page, you can find direct links to the State Highway Administration, the Maryland Transit Administration, the Maryland Port Administration, the Maryland Aviation Administration and the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration. You also will find a link to our sister agency, the Maryland Transportation Authority that operates the state's seven toll facilities. Equally important, you will see what we call our Customer Service Center. This is a listing of direct links to MDOT's most requested services. It reflects our commitment to our customers - the citizens of Maryland and all those interested in learning more about our state - by making important information easy to reach.
We hope you find this site informative and thank you for visiting the Maryland Department of Transportation.
