The NHS includes the Interstate Highway System as well as other roads important to the nation’s economy, defense, and mobility. It was developed by the Department of Transportation (DOT) in cooperation with the states, local officials, and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs).</span></p><p style='margin:12pt 0in 0in; font-family:"Avenir Next W01", "Avenir Next W00", "Avenir Next", Avenir, "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif; font-size:16px; background-image:initial; background-position:initial; background-size:initial; background-repeat:initial; background-attachment:initial; background-origin:initial; background-clip:initial; text-align:center;'><span style='font-family:Arial, sans-serif; font-size:13.5pt; color:black;'>The data are from the Highway Performance Monitoring System (HPMS) that is compiled by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
