Project

For my project I plan to assemble a map of the main roads in Hall county and explain how they are maintained according to their amount of travel. Even in ice storms and other disasters the roads are cleared acoording to how much they are used and traveled. The DOT is now incorporating electronic devices and GPS's in their trucks for them to know which roads to clear first in a storm and know the locations of other trucks throughout the county. I plan on creating a huge map with the roads that would usually be cleared first in a storm and explain how different road surfaces are chosen for certain roads acoording to how much they are traveled and length of time before they plan on paving that road again.

  1. This can be a good project-try to do as much electronically as possible! Perhaps you can even make a map that the school system could use-for example if roads are bad due to ice or something. How is the work proceeding on your project?
