Congratulations Director Bailey a well deserving elevation! We will continue to move Mississippi!

Hats off to Roderick Bailey, who has just been named MDOT's new Director of Public Transit! 👏

With more than 17 years of experience at MDOT, Roderick was promoted after previously serving as the deputy director of the Public Transit Division. The move comes after Shirley Wilson retired as Public Transit Director in June.

“Roderick’s years of experience in public transit are a valuable asset to this agency,” said Brad White, MDOT Executive Director. “His leadership will continue our commitment to provide safe, reliable public transportation for all Mississippi communities with an emphasis on the needs of the riders.”
