Big Bear City, CA, April 15, 2013 – The San Bernardino County Department of Public Works is launching a new website April 15 with interactive maps showing where county roads, flood control and solid waste facilities are located. The website can be found at http://sbcountydpw.maps.arcgis.com.
The maps include Temporary Road Closures, Waste Disposal Site Locations, Transportation Road Yards, the County Maintained Road System, Flood Control Facilities, Flood Control Right-of-Way and Capital Improvement Project locations. Additional maps will be released over time.
Some of the features include the locations of the Road Yards showing the service boundaries with a link to the road yard supervisors and phone numbers.
The Temporary Road Closures map helps you with avoiding areas where roads are closed for maintenance or problems. Flood Control facilities and Flood Control right-of-ways are easily identifiable on their own unique interactive map.
The Waste Disposal map shows you locations, addresses, hours and days of operations to assist you with accessing the landfills or transfer stations in your area.
The County Maintained Road System feature allows you to easily locate which roads are maintained by the County Department of Public Works and allows the public to search by street address to find out if they live along a road that is maintained by Public Works.
The Capital Improvement Project map provides an interactive tour of the current projects that are under construction. All of the interactive maps allow users to click on a geographic feature to bring up additional detailed information.
