    The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) is an agency of the state governmentofUtah, United States; it is usually referred to by its initials UDOT (pronounced "you-dot"). UDOT is charged with maintaining approximately 6,000 miles (9,700 km)[1] of roadway that constitute the network of state highways in Utah. The agency is headquartered in the Calvin L.
