Secretary of Transportation Jennifer Cohan announces Anne Brown as the new director of Maintenance & Operations (M&O) for DelDOT. Anne is the first woman to lead M&O, and succeeds Mark Alexander, who retired from the Department on September 30, 2019, after 32 years of service.

Anne has been with DelDOT since 2010, beginning her career in M&O as a fiscal management analyst in the Business Management section before being promoted to chief of administration for M&O. Anne has most recently served as the assistant director of finance for DelDOT.

“Maintenance & Operations oversees a wide variety of responsibilities including snow removal, road and bridge repair, cleaning drainage systems, and equipment fleet maintenance to name a few. Anne has extensive knowledge of the entire M&O division, and we are very happy to have her leading this group of 600 employees going forward,” said Secretary of Transportation Jennifer Cohan.

“I am excited and grateful to have this opportunity to serve as director of M&O. I’ve seen firsthand the great work our men and women do year-round to maintain our transportation network and look forward to supporting them as we continue to fulfill our responsibilities,” commented Anne Brown.

Anne, a resident of Kent County, has a bachelor’s degree in business management and master of business administration from Wilmington University.
