The MaineDOT Utility Services website is a resource for anyone performing utility coordination for transportation projects and for individuals looking for Location and Highway Opening permit information.

Whether walking to get the mail, biking to school or work, or using a mobility device or other human-scale transportation, many of us are pedestrians or bicyclists at some point during our day. Some people walk or bike for transportation, recreation, to save money, or to reduce pollution. This includes our children and many of our elderly neighbors. MaineDOT and our local communities recognize this and are working collaboratively to give people the opportunity to walk and bike efficiently, and most importantly, safely.
