OPTIONAL LOCATION MATCHING

If you allow location access, PNW Roads uses your location only while the app is open to identify your county. Coordinates are used for that lookup and are not used for advertising. You can decline and select a state and county manually.

SAFETY

Government and emergency information can be delayed, incomplete, changed, or inaccurate. Conditions and evacuation boundaries can change quickly. Open the original source link and follow current instructions from local authorities. PNW Roads is not emergency dispatch, a map, or turn-by-turn navigation. Call 911 for immediate police, fire, or medical help.

PNW Roads is free to download and use.
