The goal of the Statewide Centerline Project is to develop and maintain a comprehensive, up-to-date public road centerline across the state. This initiative ensures accurate mileage for local governments and facilitates efficient statewide road inventory. It aims to build strong relationships with local agencies and foster a cooperative environment. Identifying and resolving issues such as outdated or inaccurate centerlines, road ownership disputes, and topological errors are critical to the project's success. Collaboration and shared data from partners are essential for improvement.
