Description: MDOT SHA Roadway National Highway System (NHS) data consists of linear geometric features which represent the geographic extent of roadways throughout the State of Maryland that are included in the National Highway System (NHS). MDOT SHA Roadway NHS data is includes information such as NHS Facility Description & Type, along with the government agency responsible for maintaining the roadway. MDOT SHA Roadway NHS data is primarily used for general planning purposes, and for Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Highway Performance Monitoring System (HPMS) annual submission & coordination. The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) currently reports this data only on the inventory direction (generally North or East) side of the roadway. MDOT SHA Roadway NHS data is not a complete representation of all roadway geometry.MDOT SHA Roadway NHS data is developed as part of the Highway Performance Monitoring System (HPMS) which maintains and reports transportation related information to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) on an annual basis. HPMS is maintained by the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA), under the Office of Planning and Preliminary Engineering (OPPE) Data Services Division (DSD). MDOT SHA Roadway NHS data is used by various business units throughout MDOT, as well as many other Federal, State and local government agencies. MDOT SHA Roadway NHS data is key to understanding which roadways are included within the NHS from the State of Maryland.MDOT SHA Roadway NHS data is updated & published on an annual basis for the prior year. This data is for the year 2019.
