Mesa County kicks off roadway network data collection project

Mesa County recently initiated a project to assess the condition of all roads maintained by Mesa County at the Commissioners’ June 24 public hearing. Residents may see Roadway Asset Services, LLC (RAS) vehicles driving around neighborhoods and other County roads, collecting relevant data to best inform Mesa County Engineering’s management plan for scheduling maintenance and replacement of the paved roadway network. 

The vans are equipped with digital cameras that will collect imagery of all pavement and above-ground transportation-related assets located within the right-of-way. This imagery is then used to assess the pavement conditions and update the County’s pavement management program.

To collect all relevant data, the vehicles will travel all roads maintained by Mesa County and collect data during daylight hours to ensure the highest quality of data and imagery. 

If residents have any questions or require additional information about the vehicles or the project, please get in touch with us at 970-244-1772.
