Community Involvement

IDOT believes in partnering with Illinois communities statewide to promote a safer, sustainable and effective transportation system for everybody. Through meaningful partnerships and collaborations, we actively contribute to advancing our vision, Transforming Transportation for Tomorrow.

Transportation and Community!

Your input matters to us! IDOT handles multiple infrastructure improvements on an annual basis, and some of these projects benefit greatly from community feedback. To ensure your voice is heard, the department hosts various public outreach meetings and hearings. Visit our events page for details on upcoming meetings in your area, or subscribe to IDOT in Motion for updates.

These partnerships help engage and inform Illinois residents, encouraging them to make a positive impact on their communities.
