description A new edition of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) is here. The 2009 MUTCD incorporates many new standards, guidance and option statements that reflect the advancing state of the art and practice in traffic control devices, as well as successful safety research, new technologies and important operational strategies such as tolling and managed lanes. Highlights of the significant changes and additions that are included in the 2009 Edition of the MUTCD are described briefly in this article. In addition to its new cover, the 2009 MUTCD looks slightly different from previous editions. New signs and standard symbols have been added to the MUTCD based upon the Synthesis of Signs developed by FHWA of signs in common use in the states. New designs for regulatory and guide signs for jughandle intersections have been added to the MUTCD to address road user information needs at the increasing number of locations with this geometric design.
