The electronic
version posted on the MUTCD website is the official FHWA publication.
FHWA is not printing copies of the MUTCD because of the prohibitive
costs involved. The website version is also more efficient
and reliable when revising the MUTCD. National organizations
have partnered and printed hard copies of the MUTCD. These
hard copies are available for sale. Click on these links for

This Web
site is devoted to information about the Manual on Uniform
Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD). The MUTCD contains standards
for traffic control devices that regulate, warn, and guide
road users along the highways and byways in all 50 States.
Traffic control devices are important because they optimize
traffic performance, promote uniformity nationwide, and help
improve safety by reducing the number and severity of traffic
crashes.
