The PennDOT Policy Office:

develops new program initiatives and suggests changes to existing Commonwealth programs to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of services,
assesses the feasibility and desirability of proposed program changes,
coordinates the implementation of Commonwealth policies and assesses the effectiveness of those policies.

PennDOT’s Policy Office assists in the coordination of program planning and policy development among the executive branch agencies of state government. The office works closely with the Governor’s Policy Office, Governor’s Budget Office, the Office of Chief Counsel and the Pennsylvania General Assembly to ensure that federal and state policy options are thoroughly examined for their fiscal, legislative and programmatic consequences.
