We're sharing big news this week on the podcast. Or is it news about big things?

This On the Road With ADOT episode is about massive transformers, pipes and bridge girders, not to mention water tanks, windmill blades and houseboats of jaw-dropping proportions. And how ADOT permits them to travel through Arizona.

We've invited two experts to discuss what goes into making sure these and other oversize loads get where they need to go safely, with minimal disruption to traffic and in a way that safeguards Arizona's investment in state highways. I've included one example above.

I hope you'll spend a few minutes listening to Christina Pippin and Cassandra Miller chat with our host, Doug Nintzel. Then you can impress your friends with your ADOT knowledge when you come upon an oversize load. Our work in this area is one more way ADOT empowers Arizona's economy while safely connecting people.
