Description
Hurricane Evacuation Routes
This feature layer, utilizing data from Homeland Infrastructure Foundation Level Data (HIFLD), displays the locations of hurricane evacuation routes in the United States. Per HIFLD, "A hurricane evacuation route is a designated route used to direct traffic inland in case of a hurricane threat. This dataset is based on supplied data from Gulf Coast and Atlantic Seaboard states. The GIS data was gathered from states willing to share such data. Three (3) states (ME, NY, and NH) indicated that they do not maintain public maps showing hurricane evacuation routes and were unable or unwilling to share GIS files depicting such routes."
Houston, Texas area hurricane evacuation routes
Data currency: Caution should be exercised by the user of this feature layer. This data is over seventeen years old and has not been updated since creation. HIFLD is inquiring with agencies to determine whether they would be willing to be data stewards for this layer going forward. (As of January 2018)
