While Arizona’s highways have existed almost since statehood in 1912, the Arizona Department of Transportation, is marking its 50th anniversary this month. The reason is a decision by state leaders to consolidate the Arizona Highway Department and Arizona Aeronautics Department as of July 1974. 

To mark this occasion, we're inviting some longtime employees onto our podcast, On the Road With ADOT. The latest episode features Tami Wollaston, who started as a draftsman nearly 51 years ago and currently is a transportation engineering specialist in ADOT’s Roadway Engineering Group. 

I hope you'll spend a few minutes listening to Wollaston visit with our host, Doug Nintzel. 

You can subscribe to monthly episodes of On the Road with ADOT through Apple Podcasts and Spotify. You also can find episodes at azdot.gov/Podcast and featured in ADOT Blog posts.
