Mesa County recently kicked off a project to inventory the condition of all roads maintained by the County. To accomplish this, the County retained the services of Roadway Asset Services, LLC (RAS), based out of Austin, TX.
RAS operates a fleet of sophisticated data collection vehicles equipped with precision instrumentation and data collection equipment that helps state and local transportation agencies inventory and manage transportation infrastructure and assets.
Specifically, the vans possess digital cameras to collect imagery on all pavement and above ground, transportation-related assets located within the right-of-way. This imagery will be used to create a digital image inventory.
In order to collect all relevant data, the vehicles will be traveling all roads within Mesa County to ensure the highest quality of data and imagery. The vehicles will only collect data during daylight hours and on dry roads.
If residents have any questions or need additional information regarding the vehicles, the project, or the process, they are encouraged to contact Mesa County Engineering at 970-244-1765.
