About New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT)

The New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT) is a municipal agency of the City of New York that manages much of the city's transportation infrastructure. It was formed in 1977 by bringing several existing city bodies together under one department. The agency describes its mission as moving people and goods safely, equitably and sustainably while creating public spaces that support communities. It reports about 6,000 employees and an annual operating budget of $1.6 billion.

The department handles planning, design, construction, maintenance and management of city roads, sidewalks, bridges, traffic signals and signs, bike lanes, streetlights and plazas, and it operates the Staten Island Ferry. It also supervises street resurfacing, parking meters and municipal parking facilities, issues street construction permits, regulates trucks and commercial vehicles on city streets, and sets speed limits on city roads. Its New York presence is within New York City, with a public contact address at 55 Water Street in New York, NY 10041 and a training center in eastern Queens.
