Utility & Special Use
About Our Program
The CDOT Utilities and Special Use program is primarily responsible for providing services in the following two areas:
Utility/Highway Project Coordination
Regional utilities engineers work with other CDOT employees and utility companies to identify the utilities that are located within highway project boundaries and coordinate any necessary relocation of these facilities to facilitate highway construction activities.
Utility & Special Use Permitting
Utility and Special Use Permits are issued to entities external to CDOT to manage the installation of utilities, or the performance of other types of work, within the state highway right-of-way.
