Manual on Uniform Traffic Studies (MUTS)
Program Overview
The purpose of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Studies (MUTS) is to establish minimum standards for conducting traffic engineering studies on roads under the jurisdiction of the Department of Transportation. In addition, local government traffic engineering agencies are recommended and encouraged to use the MUTS as a guideline in conducting studies within their area of responsbility.
Please view Traffic Engineering and Operations Bulletin 25-03 for a description of revisions to the 2026 manual.
Please see the Traffic Engineering and Operation Bulletin page for past TEM Manual Bulletins.
Computer Based Training (CBT) modules have been developed for each MUTS chapter.
For learning curve access to the training modules, visit the
FDOT Learning Curve Training Catalog.
For non-FDOT staff / partners, visit
MUTS Training Modules for Non‑FDOT Staff to sign up.
