Details Information

Abstract: The MUTCD is incorporated by reference in 23 CFR part 655, subpart F, approved by the Federal Highway Administrator, and recognized as the national standard for traffic control on all public roads. The FHWA announced its intent to rewrite and reformat the MUTCD on January 10, 1992, at 57 FR 1134. This document proposes new text for the MUTCD in part 1, General Provisions and Part 7, Traffic Control for School Areas. The purpose of this effort is to reformat the text for clarity of intended meanings, to include metric dimensions and values for the design and installation of traffic control devices, and to improve the overall organization and discussion of the contents in the MUCTD. The proposed changes to the MUTCD are intended to expedite traffic, promote uniformity, improve safety, and incorporate technology advances in traffic control device application. Comments due September 8, 1998.
