Federal Register

The Federal Register is the FHWA’s primary avenue for publishing Notices of Proposed Amendments (NPAs) and Final Rules (FRs) regarding MUTCD standards. The FHWA MUTCD Team will post the most current Federal Register Notices on this page in both pdf and text file formats. You can also link to the chart of Final Rules affecting the MUTCD 2003 Edition.

To view adopted text and figures for the most current and approved edition of the MUTCD, please click on Knowledge, 2003 Edition in the navigation bar. You will notice that the date the text and figures are posted on the website is different from the date of the Federal Register. This is because the rulemaking process requires that the text and figures be posted before the Federal Register is published.

To view proposed text, figures, and change list for the MUTCD, click on Knowledge, Amendment Process in the navigation bar.
