ALL COUNTIES | April 11, 2024

The Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) launched an interactive dashboard designed to keep citizens informed about pavement conditions across the state, the status of construction jobs, safety data, and other metrics under the “Transportation Performance” umbrella.

The Transportation Performance Dashboard can be accessed via ARDOT’s website at ardot.gov/performance.

The dashboard features gauges showing bridge condition, Interstate condition, and National Highway condition ratings – along with the evaluation process and what each rating means.

“These ratings are determined using federal standards,” said ARDOT Director Lorie Tudor.  “Seventy-five percent of our budget goes toward taking care of the roads we already have. We’re proud of our pavement preservation efforts across the state and are excited to have a tool that shares where we stand in that continuous effort.”

The dashboard also includes the latest roadway safety data and an interactive map of construction jobs across the state.

“This is a great tool to promote transparency and show the public how their tax dollars are being spent,” said Director Tudor. “We hope to continue adding features to this dashboard over time.”
