Mile markers in all 50 US states and 10 Canadian provinces and territories. Live state DOT feeds in all 50 states plus British Columbia, Alberta and Manitoba.
From coordinates to mile markers
A driver reports “I-80, mile 184.” You need to find that stretch.
Vehicle coordinates and highway mile markers describe location in different ways. MileCheck adds a nearby mile-marker reference to a highway position, giving dispatch another way to match a driver’s report with road information.
Bring state DOT feeds into that view to check reported conditions along the route. Alert types and location details depend on the state’s feed. Mile-marker positions are approximate and may differ from roadside signs.
Road data for dispatch
Check the road around a vehicle’s location.
Live state DOT feeds
Road reports from all 50 states plus British Columbia, Alberta and Manitoba in a common format. Available categories depend on the source feed.
Reported chain controls
Check chain-control alerts where the DOT feed provides them. Requirements vary by location and vehicle. Read the issuing agency’s instructions for the restriction that applies.
Nearby mile markers
Look up a nearby highway mile marker from a vehicle location. Use it alongside the driver’s report and GPS coordinates.
