Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM); request for comments.
Summary
The FHWA is requesting comments on a proposed revision to its policy on the design standards which apply to highway construction and reconstruction projects on the National Highway System (NHS). A 2001 revision of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials' (AASHTO) publication entitled A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets has replaced the previous version of this policy published in 1994. If adopted by the FHWA, the new AASHTO publication would constitute the FHWA policy on design standards for highway construction and reconstruction projects on the NHS.
