The Wyoming Highway Patrol

The Wyoming Highway Patrol (WHP) is essential to the Wyoming Department of Transportation's mission of creating a safe and effective transportation system. The real power of the WHP comes from its dedicated members - the people who embody its spirit and purpose. This team includes not only the uniformed personnel who patrol Wyoming roadways and ensure the security of the Governor and State Capitol, but also skilled professionals in Safety, Training, Evidence, Records, Equipment and Technology, Dispatch and the Ports of Entry. Every member of this unified division ensures that the processes involved in securing citizen safety are lawful, transparent, and accurately executed. Carrying out a high-risk, high-profile mission across such a vast transportation system requires a workforce with a high moral character, diverse skills, and a fierce sense of duty. The WHP's strong commitment to service and a shared vision inspired their strategic plan, which focuses on empowering the workforce through mentorship, diverse training opportunities, and meaninful community engagement.
