Our Strategic Plan: A guide to help us Rebuild our Roads

Our task over the next 10 years and beyond is to repair and rebuild our transportation network to ensure that our citizens and businesses can travel on a safe and reliable system. This is a core function of government and SCDOT is entrusted with the responsibility to effectively and efficiently utilize tax payer funds to turn the status of the state-owned transportation network around. We will accomplish this mission by establishing an overarching Strategic Plan to guide our initiatives, a Transportation Asset Management Plan to articulate our targets and embrace performance management principles that will enable us to determine how we are doing in achieving our goals. We will also utilize risk management strategies to help us identify and mitigate potential obstacles to achieving success.
