PennDOT Releases Refreshed Website
The state Department of Transportation (PennDOT) and Driver & Vehicle Services (DVS) websites has refreshed and migrated its website into the new pa.gov “look” that was launched earlier this year.
To help users get acclimated to the new web pages, here are a few tips:
- Looking for something? To ensure there is “no wrong door” to access Commonwealth services, all service content from PennDOT and DVS was pulled into the statewide directory on pa.gov.
- These new service pages will continue to be linked to other content within the PennDOT and DVS sites, just housed in the new location.
- The service directory is part of the main site navigation and featured prominently on the pa.gov homepage for easy access.
- PennDOT and DVS still have their own webpages, which can be accessed by clicking on the blue text.
- PennDOT contacts were consolidated into one database that can be searched, filtered, and linked to specific regions or business areas to help users find information more easily.
- A new standard for pages about construction projects was created to make them easier to find.
- Forms and publications are now housed in new areas. PennDOT’s are here and DVS’ are here. We created a separate search hub for PennDOT maps to provide a clearer user experience – check that out here.
- Many of the commonly used features remain on the site, such as Online Services, Programs and Doing Business, Permits, Planning, and Innovation at PennDOT.
Redirects were set up for most PennDOT and DVS pages, but if you can’t find something, please contact the PennDOT digital team at ra-pddotdigital@pa.gov.
