CDOT oversees the public way--streets, sidewalks, bridges, alleys and other places you walk on, drive on, or ride a bike on.

We handle design, construction, maintenance and management of streets, sidewalks, alleys, bridges, bike and pedestrian facilities, transit stations, streetlights, traffic signals, signs and pavement markings, streetscapes and sustainable design. We work to make sure the public way functions safely and efficiently.

More treats. Fewer scares. 🎃

If you're driving this Halloween weekend, slow down and watch for people walking, especially near crosswalks, intersections, and driveways.

Give everyone time and space to cross. Let’s help everyone get home safely.

Have a happy and safe Halloween! 👻
