Airports and seaports serve as major gateways to our state, which is why Florida will continue to commit resources and work alongside our partner agencies to ensure the best customer service experience from start to finish for Floridians and visitors.

FLORIDA DOT@MyFDOT

The Florida Airports Council recently held a panel with @FDOT_Secretary Jared W. Perdue, P.E., @FLSecofCommerce J. Alex Kelly, @SelectFLA President and CEO Matt Swanson, and Gateways Advisory Council Chair Nick Primrose to discuss the strategic investments Florida is making in our supply chain. By bringing together industry leaders, we can explore new ways to enhance Florida’s multimodal transportation network.

The results of this mission will continue to open doors to new opportunities and will keep Florida’s economy thriving through advanced transportation technologies.

FLORIDA DOT@MyFDOT

Transportation is essential to economic growth and quality of life. The recent @SelectFLA and @FLACommerce UK Mission trip reflects the kinds of strides we are taking in Florida to establish preeminence in the transportation industry and help state business flourish both at home and abroad. Through engagements such as the 2026 Farnborough Airshow and partner delegation meetings, this mission included focuses on the aviation and aerospace industries, both of which are a big part of Florida’s economy and will continue to bring high paying jobs to our local communities.

While in Northern Ireland it was a great honor to join Florida Secretary of State @CordByrd to meet with Speaker Edwin Poots of the Northern Ireland Assembly. Appreciative of the opportunity to share initiatives, knowledge, and history from where we each call home.

Thank you to our partners at @FLHSMV 's FHP and local law enforcement for helping to keep our communities safe during #OperationSouthernSlowDown and for emphasizing the true dangers of speeding on our roadways. The extra time saved is never worth the potential life lost.

FLORIDA DOT@MyFDOT

From July 13–18, Operation Southern Slow Down is underway across Florida and the Southeastern U.S., bringing together law enforcement and transportation agencies to help reduce speeding-related crashes and save lives through increased enforcement and public education. Safer roads depend on driver responsibility. Slow down, respect the speed limit, and look out for others on the road. Every driver has a role to play. #OperationSouthernSlowDown #DriveSafeFL

By completing Phase One of this project a year ahead of schedule, FDOT is laying the groundwork to deliver the remaining corridor improvements at an accelerated rate, bringing congestion relief faster to the people who depend on it every day. This kind of progress is becoming Florida’s standard thanks to @GovRonDeSantis continued investments in critical transportation infrastructure through the Moving Florida Forward Initiative.

FLORIDA DOT@MyFDOT

Big news for Bay County travelers! Today, FDOT announced major progress milestones for the U.S. 98 widening project including the completion of the first segment from Mandy to Nautilus Street one full year ahead of schedule, as well as breaking ground on the third and final phase, which widens a 5.8-mile segment from Richard Jackson Boulevard to Hathaway Bridge. This final phase has been advanced by several years as part of @GovRonDeSantis Moving Florida Infrastructure Initiative. To keep up with the Panhandle’s tremendous growth, all three phases of this $170 million project will expand capacity in this heavily tourist traveled area by 50% for approximately 10 miles of U.S. 98 from Mandy Lane to the Hathaway Bridge. These accelerated efforts will bring about a $329 million economic impact in the region and will improve traffic safety, increase roadway capacity, and enhance connectivity.

For centuries, transportation has played an undeniable role in our nation’s growth. Celebrating America 250 recognizes the discoveries, decisions, and developments that contributed to America’s legacy and how transportation has continued to move us forward. Happy Independence Day and God bless America.

FLORIDA DOT@MyFDOT

Happy 250th anniversary to the United States of America, the beautiful country we call home. This Independence Day, we celebrate the bold declaration our Founding Fathers made two and a half centuries ago, the countless sacrifices made to preserve and defend our freedoms, and the years of innovation and development that brought us to where we are today. FDOT is proud to commemorate this important milestone as we reflect on the many ways transportation has contributed to the story of our nation. From connecting communities to powering our economy, transportation has carried our country from the very start and continues to fuel its future.

The flag featured in this video is located on I-4, right in the center of the state, and covers 4,000 square feet! Proud to wave the Red, White, and Blue in the Free State of Florida!

FLORIDA DOT@MyFDOT

The American Flag is a symbol of freedom, sacrifice, and the enduring spirit of this nation. As we celebrate America’s 250th this weekend, FDOT is commemorating the occasion by installing new flagpoles, some over 100 ft. tall, at many locations around the state. It’s a great reminder to celebrate our nation’s history no matter where your travels take you.

Happy to join @USDOTFHWA today to celebrate 70 years of the Eisenhower Interstate System, which completely transformed transportation in America. Florida joined the Eisenhower Interstate System in 1959 with a small segment of I-4. Today, Florida's interstate system provides seamless connections for travelers around the state and to the rest of the country.

U.S. Department of Transportation@USDOT

On this day in 1956, President Eisenhower signed the Federal-Aid Highway Act, launching the largest public works project in U.S. history We are proud to partner with @MyFDOT to celebrate this historic milestone as we look toward the next era of American infrastructure 🇺🇸 Check out the journey from blueprint to the open road 👇

Since 2019, @GovRonDeSantis has solidified Florida’s place as a global leader in transportation through strategic investments and this year’s budget continues that trend. These investments will deliver projects that relieve congestion, strengthen our economic competitiveness, and preserve the quality of life of our communities.

Ron DeSantis@GovRonDeSantis

The Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Budget marks the fourth straight year Florida has reduced its budget. We have large reserves and a full rainy day fund—more than triple the size from when I took office. We’ve paid down historic debt instead of passing the burden to future generations. The State of Florida has built a strong fiscal foundation because we manage taxpayers’ money responsibly. Florida’s per capita spending is one of the lowest in the nation. We have the fewest state employees per capita in the nation. We’ve achieved high levels of fiscal responsibility while also reducing taxes and making historic investment in infrastructure, education and Everglades restoration. In short, it can be done!

Aligning state & federal priorities results in a stronger transportation system - not just in Florida, but across the country. Grateful to have @USDOTFHWA Administrator McMaster take the time to join us in Florida at the FBT Transportation Conference & offer valuable perspectives on how our state is transforming the industry standard & how our partnership can take transportation to new heights.

These new I-4 truck parking sites reflect a shared commitment to improving roadway safety, relieving congestion, and strengthening the supply chain.

FLORIDA DOT@MyFDOT

Florida’s economy moves on our roadways, and truckers are the backbone that keep it running. Today, FDOT broke ground on new truck parking along I-4, with new sites planned in Seminole, Volusia, Orange, and Osceola counties to support one of the state’s most critical freight corridors. With trucks moving 95% of goods in Florida, these new facilities will expand capacity close to where drivers need it most, improve safety, and help keep goods moving efficiently through our local communities. Supported by a $180 million INFRA grant from @USDOT, and in partnership with @USDOTFHWA and @FMCSA, this investment reflects a shared commitment to strengthening the supply chain and supporting the drivers who keep Florida moving every day.

Proud of my alma mater for helping to build the leaders and achievers in the transportation industry who are taking our nation to new heights. What an incredible accomplishment!

The Citadel@Citadel1842

It is a tremendous day for The Citadel as one of our own, Randy Bresnik '89, has been named the Commander of NASA's Artemis III mission set to launch next year. This vital mission will bring humans one step closer to walking on the moon again, and we are incredibly proud that this mission will be led by a distinguished Citadel grad. Randy's career, with 25 years as a Marine Corps pilot and and two previous spaceflights, represents the promise of what four years at The Citadel can prepare cadets to accomplish in life. All of us at The Citadel will be cheering for Randy and his crew as they make history!

Under @GovRonDeSantis’ leadership, Florida has completely transformed its emergency response efforts. Less bureaucracy, more coordination across agencies like @FLSERT and @FLHSMV, and year-round preparations allow us to better serve communities when they need it most.

Ron DeSantis@GovRonDeSantis

We have made historic investments in infrastructure hardening and emergency management. Today in Orlando, at the start of the Atlantic hurricane season, I was proud to announce another step to ensure that Florida remains the national model for disaster preparedness and recovery. The Coalition for Operational Readiness in Education (CORE) is a first-of-its-kind initiative that brings together state agencies, colleges, and private-sector partners to strengthen the future of Florida’s emergency management workforce. CORE will position Florida as the worldwide epicenter of talent development, training, and technology at the cutting edge of emergency management and disaster recovery.
