Flexible Design Standards for Highway Improvements: An Urban Consortium Information Bulletin
Some accepted highway design standards are considered inappropriate by local officials, especially in urban areas where existing rights-of-way are narrow and hemmed in by existing buildings. The report discusses local concerns about design standards, provides general information on current Federal regulations and AASHTO standards, and provides an extensive annotated bibliography and list of contacts. The document also includes information on the links between highway design and traffic accidents, and explores the liability implications of some design decisions.
