Statement of Senator Coons on Sec. Bhatt's Resignation

Statement

Date: Jan. 5, 2015
Location: Wilmington, DE
Issues: Transportation

"Leading one of Delaware's biggest departments is often a thankless job and is rife with many sleepless nights," said Sen. Coons. "Shailen served those three-plus years with a positive attitude, attention to detail for the job at hand and a passion for the people of DelDOT. Shailen brought leadership to DelDOT at a critical time, improved the public's faith in DelDOT to be a good steward of tax payer money. After the country saw how Shailen and DELDOT skillfully handled the 495 crisis, I knew it was a matter of time before Shailen was offered greater opportunities."

"I want to take this opportunity to thank Sec. Bhatt for his service to Delaware and leadership of the Delaware Department of Transportation and wish him and his family well in his new position as lead of Colorado Transportation Department."
