WASHINGTON — Former Maine Department of Transportation staffer Gregory Nadeau joins the Federal Highway Administration on Wednesday as deputy administrator.
Nadeau has served as the deputy commissioner for Policy, Planning and Communications for the MDOT since 2002, managing the state's transportation planning, freight and business services. He also served on the Maine Turnpike Authority's Board of Directors, and was the state transportation department's liaison to Maine congressional delegation.
"Greg's background is ideal for the Federal Highway Administration," said FHWA's Executive Director Jeffrey F. Paniati in a statement. "He brings a unique combination of transportation and legislative experience. His strong background in economic development will be a valuable asset as we work to support our economic recovery."
Nadeau represented Lewiston in the Maine House of Representatives from 1978 to 1990. He served as senior policy adviser for Gov. Angus King from 1995 through 2002, focusing on transportation, economic development and international trade issues.
