About this dataset

This layer contains the boundaries of the VDOT Area Headquarters (AHQ) zones of responsibility. These areas are important as they designate which AHQ is responsible for road maintenance in that area. Additionally, in certain areas of Virginia (the Virginia independent cities, and Arlington and Henrico Counties), maintenance responsibility of local roads is devolved to the local government. These areas have been been removed.July 2016 changes - changed Residency and Residency Codes for the AHQ's in the new Residencies of Louisa and AbingdonChanges made in July 2015 to change several Area HQ boundaries for Leesburg Residency / Loudoun County. These changes result in some non-contiguous island and donut polygons. These are necessary to transfer certain unpaved routes from one Area to another.
