RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) – The North Carolina Department of Transportation is still at risk of overspending in the future, according to a new report released by the state auditor's office on Tuesday.While the report said NCDOT did not overspend during the second half of 2020, it also said it's going to take a lot more work to keep it that way.The report comes following last year's audit of the department that revealed millions of dollars in overspending.This latest report said the department has not exceeded its spending plan, but that that was mainly due to chance.
