"The move comes as VDOT reduces its workforce and works to address a $4.6 billion shortfall. About 360 VDOT employees leave the agency [this past] Saturday. By establishing a customer service center, you'll no longer need to contact individual VDOT offices for help. You'll just call 1-800-367-7623. A scaled down version of the service center starts Monday [today], with the full service center opening in July."The new service center is part of a mandated staffing reduction to 7,500 full-time employees by July 1, 2010, and to streamline the way VDOT does business around the commonwealth. VDOT’s restructuring program, called the "Blueprint for the Future" also changes business practices and alters the way citizens, developers, localities, businesses and transportation industry contacts will do business with the agency.
