New Logo and Assistant Commissioner for TDOT

The Tennesseee Department of Transportation has a new logo and a new assistant commissioner for environment and planning.  

As reported today, Republican Gov. Bill Haslam hired a new chief environment and planning officer and replaced a green logo introduced by his Democratic predecessor, Gov. Phil Bredesen. The new logo (above) features the department’s TDOT acronym on a red field patterned on the Tennessee flag and in the shape of the state. It replaces a green-themed symbol (below) introduced by former Gov. Phil Bredesen as part of an effort to emphasize environmental priorities.

Adetokunbo “Toks” Omishakin, director of healthy living initiatives for Nashville Mayor Karl Dean, took over the vacant position of TDOT’s assistant commissioner for environment and planning today. Transportation commissioner John Schroer previously elevated his top engineer, Paul Degges, and new chief administrator, Joseph Galbato III, to deputy commissioners. But Omishakin remains at the lower assistant commissioner level.
