A new user-friendly crash dashboard has been unveiled in Mesa County.
The Crash Data Dashboard, released by the Mesa County Regional Transportation Planning Office, compiles crash data from multiple agencies into a single, easy-to-use platform, according to a county press release.
With the dashboard, residents and transportation officials can see where and how crashes are occurring across the county — helping inform decisions related to roadway design, safety improvements, education and enforcement.
By consolidating crash data from multiple sources, the dashboard reflects a broader push by transportation agencies to use data-driven tools to identify high-risk corridors, prioritize improvement and communicate safety challenges more clearly to the public.
Users can explore crash trends in specific areas, filter data by mode of travel — such as driving, biking or walking — and better understand risks along frequently traveled roadways.
According to a video released by the county, Mesa County regularly collaborates with local partners to improve transportation safety, with a key focus on making crash data more accessible and actionable.
The dashboard’s release comes just ahead of National Work Zone Awareness Week, reinforcing the role that clear, accessible data can play in guiding safety improvements across the transportation network.
