  • Biennial Report of the North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) for Fiscal Years 2017 to 2019
    William Panos Doug Burgum Director Governor December 2, 2019 The Honorable Doug Burgum Governor of North Dakota 600 East Boulevard Avenue Bismarck, ND 58505-0001 Governor Burgum: In compliance with Sections 24-02-01 and 54-06-04 of the North Dakota Century Code, I present to you the Biennial Report of the North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) for fiscal years 2017 to 2019. The NDDOT worked hard on many projects to maintain the state’s transportation system. A large amount of resources were dedicated to improve safety and traffic movement by enhancing, rebuilding, and repairing highways and bridges throughout North Dakota. The Department’s budget for the 2017–2019 Biennium was $1.27 billion. Compared to the 2015-2017 biennial budget of $2.7 billion, this was a $1.4 billion reduction in State Funds, $80.9 million reduction in State Transportation User Revenue and a $56.9 million increase in Federal Funds. A few of the many accomplishments completed this past biennium include: being selected as one of ten participants in the UAS Integration Pilot Program with U.S. DOT; expanded the motor vehicle self-service kiosk machines to five additional locations throughout the state; launched the Vision Zero initiative to reduce motor vehicle crash fatalities and serious injuries to zero; launched “Track-A-Plow” technology onto our Travel Map for public use; launched ND Moves, the state’s first active and public transportation plan; and developed and implemented the new Urban Grant Program for infrastructure improvement projects within business districts of urban cities. Because of the support of our legislative body, partners, stakeholder groups, and a dedicated group of em- ployees, the Department was able to help meet transportation needs across the state while accomplishing our mission to safely move people and goods.
