2009 MUTCD Oregon Supplement
The Oregon Traffic Control Devices Committee (OTCDC) is currently performing an extensive review of all changes to the MUTCD and creating suggestions for Oregon specific deviations to be included in the Oregon Supplement to the MUTCD--2009 Edition. Deviations to the MUTCD are suggested by the OTCDC for justifiable reasons such as instances where Oregon law deviates from the MUTCD. These deviations are adopted through the OAR process and by approval of the FHWA. The current document supplements the 2003 Edition of the MUTCD with Revision No. 1 Incorporated, dated November 2004. Both the Oregon Supplement and the MUTCD need to be consulted when researching traffic control issues.
