The deadline for comments on this proposed revised MUTCD is Thursday, 31 July 2008. To submit a comment, simply go to the http://www.regulations.gov website and search on "28977" (the regulatory number assigned to the new MUTCD). Then follow the instructions on the webpage. Note: When submitting comments, it's usually a good idea to provide thorough justification for proposed revisions to the draft MUTCD content, and include references or citations to applicable research or studies as needed.
