Its "Quiet Pavement" project started in 2003 surfaced about 115 miles (185 km) of Phoenix-area freeways with rubberized asphalt. Former U.S. Secretary of Transportation Mary Peters had previously been a Director of ADOT. The current Federal Highway Administrator, Victor Mendez, was also previously a Director of ADOT.
