Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT)

The Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) manages approximately 6,400 lane miles of roads in the nation's smallest state, yet a strategically located one on the I-95 Northeast Corridor between Providence and Boston. Key freight routes include I-95, I-195, I-295, and US-1. RIDOT manages over 1,000 bridges, many of which are aging infrastructure requiring careful weight limit management. Despite its small size, Rhode Island plays an important role in regional freight distribution, with the Port of Providence handling petroleum, scrap metal, and other bulk commodities. The department administers commercial vehicle permits and provides travel information services for truckers.
