The Operational Paradox Facing State DOTs Interest in artificial intelligence among state Departments of Transportation has never been higher yet deployment remains severely stalled. Recent national data from the AASHTO CTSO Whitepaper1 reveals systemic friction points that state leadership confronts every day:

• 76% of State DOTs cite data quality, fragmentation, and availability as their primary barrier to AI implementation.
• 59% report a severe shortage of internal AI and data technical expertise due to outdated HR classifications.
• 65% operate under federated governance models, where 43% state that deployment pathways for new AI tools remain untested or unclear.

At the same time, state leaders are tasked with delivering on the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Freedom to Drive initiative ensuring citizens can move safely and smoothly across state corridors without endless bottlenecks, signal failures, or gridlock.

Join us to see how purpose-built GenAI can close that gap. This webinar will cover:

• How to align your agency’s technology roadmap with the three pillars of the Freedom to Drive initiative: maximizing existing roadway capacity, fast-tracking congestion-relief projects, and leveraging private-sector technology.
• How to identify the root cause of a bottleneck and generate executive-ready summaries that justify budget and fast-track approvals.
• How a Human-in-the-Loop framework keeps public safety decisions in the hands of your engineers, with a full audit trail behind every AI recommendation.
• Practical ways to bypass common technical backlogs without a multi-year IT overhaul.
