  • History of ALDOT
    Module 1 Read Ahead History of ALDOT Module 1: History of ALDOT Objectives After attending the training in Module 1, participants will be able to: • understand the history of ALDOT from birth out of corrections in 1911 until today. • identify the many changes that have occurred throughout the history of ALDOT. • understand the many reorganizations of areas, regions, divisions, and bureaus. Early History of ALDOT In 1911, the State Highway Commission was created under Governor Emmet O’Neal’s Administration (1911-1915). The State Highway Commission consisted of five commissioners and three regular employees. The State Highway Commission was organized along with an Oyster Commission and was initially housed in the cloak room of the Senate Chamber in the Alabma State Capitol. The first five Alabama State Highway Commission Members were Robert E. Spragins, Chairman, of Huntsville; John Craft of Mobile who later became Chairman of the 2nd Commission; V. B. Atkins of Selma; G.N. Mitcham, Professor of Civil Engineering at Auburn University; and Eugene A. Smith, State Geologist at the University of Alabama. Regular Members of the Commission were W.S. Keller, State Highway Engineer who had experience at the County Engineer level; Robert P. Boyd, Assistant State Highway Engineer who had experience at the County Engineer level; and C.L. Rabb, Clerk. Earliest Years Early highway executives in 1911 shared some of the same financial woes as their current counterparts. The Financial Act of 1911 appropriated $154,000 from the State Convict Fund. The Act allowed the funds to be used for construction of roads and for the overhead expenses of the state executives.

Previously, other governors and I have used that historic chamber to kick off a Joint Session of the Alabama Legislature for the State of the State address. Tonight, however, is different, just like 2020 was different from every other year in memory. Instead of addressing the 140 members of the Legislature in person, the Capitol building is empty tonight. Because of COVID-19, our legislators have appropriately taken the added precaution of social distancing in their respective chambers as they prepare for the formal start to their Regular Session. To the men and women of the Legislature, let me begin with a word of heartfelt thanks. Thank you for working with my Administration and me as, together, we have looked for good ideas and solutions to the challenges and demands of this past year. And, I know I speak for every elected leader throughout the state when I say we all owe the people of Alabama a debt of gratitude for their willingness to work with us as we have navigated one of the most challenging years in our state’s history. Make no mistake, this time last year things were different...much different. At 2.7 percent, Alabama had the lowest unemployment rate in our state’s history.
