We're celebrating a milestone anniversary: 50 years since state lawmakers decided to consolidate the Arizona Highway Department and Arizona Aeronautics Department and create the Arizona Department of Transportation.

Arizona’s transportation system has seen a great many changes over the last five decades, and ADOT is fortunate to have a handful of public servants who been here for all of it. In this episode of On the Road with ADOT, LeRoy Brady, our chief landscape architect and a 50-year employee, visits with our host, Doug Nintzel. We'll be featuring more veteran employees in the coming weeks.

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.

Digital historians may remember when the Internet was informally known as the “information superhighway.” Now the Arizona Department of Transportation is turning that idea into reality by offering information about highways and much more, as ADOT debuts its “On the road with ADOT” podcast.

The podcast will explore everything from the operation of freeways and highways to “Arizona Highways”, the internationally-known award-winning magazine published by ADOT. But even more than that, we will give people a glimpse into how seriously we take our responsibility to the environment, explain new technologies to build and maintain roads, offer the hows and whys of the Motor Vehicle Division and many other topics. The first podcast is now available and features ADOT Director John Halikowski.

Each podcast runs approximately 20 minutes and is available on multiple platforms including Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, iHeart, Google Podcasts, Pandora, Spotify and Stitcher, among others. New podcasts will be released several times each month. To find and listen to the podcast, search for “On the road with ADOT” in a podcasting platform of choice.
