State human capital management plan

The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) Intermodal Transportation Division received a $156,250 Project Grant award from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) under the Highway Research and Development Program (CFDA 20.200) on September 11, 2025. The grant funds development of a State Human Capital Management Plan, which will establish comprehensive strategies for workforce planning, development, and management within Arizona's transportation infrastructure operations. The project is scheduled for completion by June 30, 2030, and represents FHWA's investment in enhancing organizational capacity within state transportation agencies.

This award supports ADOT's strategic human capital initiatives aligned with the FHWA's mission to maintain and improve the nation's transportation infrastructure through research and development. As a key state transportation entity responsible for managing Arizona's comprehensive multimodal transportation networks, ADOT's human capital planning efforts will strengthen the agency's ability to effectively execute its substantial federal grant portfolio and deliver transportation infrastructure projects including highway maintenance, bridge rehabilitation, transit operations, and multimodal transportation development across the state.
