Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen announced Friday that he has appointed Vicki Kramer as the next director of the Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT).
“Vicki brings broad experience from both the private and public sector to keep moving our state’s transportation system into the 21st century,” Pillen said. “She will be a transformative leader of the Department of Transportation and is the person we need to speed the completion of Nebraska’s vital four-lane highway system plan and deploy 21st century infrastructure across the state.”
The former NDOT Director Kyle Schneweis said that Kramer will be exceptional in the role.
“She will continue to modernize the department and work to achieve its goals of increased safety, fiscal responsibility, project delivery, asset management, and workforce development,” he said.
Kramer previously worked as the Chief of Staff for Infrastructure Markets and Strategy for Kiewit Infrastructure Engineering. She worked for the Nebraska Department of Transportation from 2016 to 2020 in a variety of roles including Communication Director and Public Policy Director as well as a strategic advisor to the director.
