MUTCD GUIDELINES

 

The Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) for streets and highways contains the national standards governing all traffic control devices. This is the guidelines that the Department of Transportation (DOT) uses. All public agencies and owners of private roads open to public travel across the nation rely on the MUTCD to bring uniformity to the roadway. The MUTCD plays a critical role in improving safety and mobility of all road users. Uniformity of traffic control devices is critical in highway safety and mobility, as well as cutting capital and maintenance costs of traffic control devices for public agencies and manufacturers.
