You're creating a dict for highway_dict and a dict for aging_dict, and
then using those dicts for every iteration of the 'for' loop.

You're also appending both of the dicts onto the 'queue_row' list for
every iteration of the 'for' loop.

I think that what you meant to do was, for each match, to create a
dict, populate it, and then append it to the list.
