Ultra-Low Volume Roads Guide

Project Summary

The ultra-low-volume roads guide is designed to provide guidance for the construction of roadways in rural, isolated, Indigenous, or tribal areas with less than 100 average daily trips (<100 ADT). These roads serve a unique purpose in their communities and warrant special considerations in their design. This guide enumerates design guidelines and considerations to help designers match roadway function and design while maximizing safety, economic efficiency, and suitability for community needs.
