Today Director Rocchio joined state and local partners to celebrate the upcoming World Cup games this summer. ⚽
RIDOT is pleased to help provide traffic control, messaging, and signage on our roads to help all who will be traveling to the games. We’ve also been busy sweeping all of our roads and picking up litter to make sure our road system is clean and free of debris. ✅
🦺 Today at RIDOT, we’re wearing orange for National Work Zone Awareness Week. Every year moms and dads at work in construction zones are injured or killed.
Please slow down when you approach construction zones. ⚠️

Proud of our team at @PennDOTNews for answering the call and lending a hand to help @GovDanMcKee and his team at @RIDOTNews.
It's what we do here in Pennsylvania.
@GovDanMcKee speaks during a press conference announcing plans for @FIFAWorldCup at the new Navigant Field House at @BryantAthletics at Bryant University Friday morning.
🔴⚪️🔵 Beginning in 1969, RIDOT has helped stripe Hope Street in Bristol with the red, white, and blue center line colors to symbolize America’s continuous Fourth of July celebration.
There’s actually a federal exemption in national road design standards that specifically allows a red, white, and blue center line instead of a traditional yellow center line.
It’s the only road in the country to have this exemption.
Happy Opening Day! ⚾

Just broke ground on renovations for the 11th busiest @Amtrak station in the US today!🚉
Through a $12.5 million federal @USDOTFRA grant secured by @SenJackReed and @SenWhitehouse, Providence Station will continue connecting and driving economic growth in New England.
Big upgrades & new amenities are arriving soon at Providence Station, a key gateway to RI & our capital city. Thanks to millions in federal funding, we broke ground on a renovation project to improve experience & comfort for travelers and to make the station accessible for all.
We just secured $95.5M to help rebuild the Washington Bridge.
This is the 2nd major federal grant RI received in the past month to support the project, bringing the grant total to $220.98M.
Thank you @POTUS and our congressional delegation for helping us secure this crucial $$.
We just received $125.4M from @USDOT to help build a brand new Washington Bridge.
We're grateful to @POTUS, @SecretaryPete and our top-notch Congressional Delegation for supporting this important investment in Rhode Island's infrastructure.
