An analysis was conducted to assess the effect of shifting program emphasis to promulgate traffic control device improvements on all public roads. Upgrading and optimizing the highway information system was evaluated in terms of human factors, safety, benefit-cost, and traffic engineering. It was found that those portions of the highway system not in compliance with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) would experience significant safety benefits and improved system efficiency through upgrading to current standards.
