What this tracks

This dataset records proposed technology installations and upgrades along Nevada state highways, including road weather information systems and traffic monitoring devices.

Why it matters to you

When planning winter travel on SR-158, this tells you where aging equipment may cause unreliable road condition reports. Business owners shipping perishable goods can check if proposed RWIS stations will improve weather monitoring along their routes. Residents can see if their regular commute corridor has scheduled upgrades for traffic sensors that could mean temporary lane closures during installation.

How to read this data

Location — Highway and milepost where tech will be installed (e.g., “SR-158 near MP CL6”).
Prop_Tech — Type of device being installed (e.g., “RWIS” for Road Weather Information System).
Priority — Implementation urgency (e.g., “Medium”).
Risks_ROW — Potential installation challenges (e.g., “Compatibility with existing infrastructure”).
