PODCAST: Helping inspire the next generation of transportation professionals through ADOT Kids

Listen to the podcast! (or use the player below)

At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, I was part of a group looking at ways ADOT Communications could help keep Arizonans connected as social distancing became the norm. That led to ADOT Kids, which continues to produce activities designed to engage children and, we hope, inspire the next generation of transportation professionals.

I hope you'll spend a few minutes listening to my colleagues Audrey St. Clair, Mary Currie and Bill Lamoreaux, who are the driving forces behind ADOT Kids today. They visit with host Doug Nintzel in this episode of On the Road With ADOT.

If you haven't checked out ADOT Kids at azdot.gov/ADOTKids, I hope you'll do that now. There's a lot of great stuff, including a challenge to write a safety message suitable for one of our overhead message boards. For the record, my ADOT kid, who's now an ADOT legal adult, is responsible for the drawing and safety message above.
