Reports: TxDOT Executive Director Joe Weber to step down at end of the year

Originally reported by the El Paso Times: “Change within the top ranks of the Texas Department of Transportation is expected to continue…”

Here’s the scoop from El Paso Times Austin Bureau Chief Marty Schladen:

“Change within the top ranks of the Texas Department of Transportation is expected to continue Tuesday with the announcement that Executive Director Joe Weber will retire at the end of the year, Texas Rep. Joe Pickett, D-El Paso confirmed.

A TxDOT spokeswoman could not immediately confirm that Weber would retire.

Weber’s retirement comes after the August retirement of deputy executive director John Barton.”
