Value Engineering

Final rule.

This rule updates regulations to enhance the integration of value engineering (VE) analysis in the planning and development of highway improvement projects. In issuing the final rule, FHWA revises the VE regulations to make them consistent with prior changes in legislation and regulations. This rulemaking does not otherwise impose any new burdens on States, revise the threshold of projects for which a VE analysis is required, or change the reporting structure now in place.
