Florida’s continued population growth places increasing demand on the state’s transportation system. FDOT makes strategic investments in capacity and travel options to improve safety, reduce congestion, and enhance the efficient movement of people and goods. 

The Chief Planner leads FDOT’s Central Office Planning Offices, including Policy Planning, Systems Forecasting & Trends, and Systems Implementation. In this role, the Chief Planner directs statewide planning activities and establishes a strong foundation for delivering projects that improve system performance and meet statewide goals.

The Planning Offices work across federal, state, and local partners to strengthen coordination, solve transportation challenges, and deliver measurable results. These efforts advance projects that address current and future needs, supplying the Work Program with projects that align with the Department’s strategic priorities.
