A hundred and fifty years ago road departments leaned on the farmers next to the road to help maintain it and often times paid them to do so. As time marched on and road departments became DOTs with dedicated maintenance workers and tools and technology advanced there is still a lot of innovation that takes place in the maintenance garage.
On this episode we're talking winter ops with Indiana DOT’s Director of Innovation and Process Improvement Todd May. Trust and innovation are core values at the Indiana DOT and they have a program that encourages their employees to come up with ideas to work smarter and safer. Todd’s got plenty of stories and examples to share with us on this episode. If you want to find out more about innovation and process improvement at the Indiana DOT you can email him at ToMay@indot.IN.gov
