What is AASHTO?
The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan association that represents transportation departments and agencies in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Founded in 1914, AASHTO serves as a leading advocate for transportation policies and standards that promote safe, efficient, and sustainable transportation systems across the United States.
AASHTO Standards
AASHTO develops and publishes a wide range of technical standards, specifications, and guidelines that govern the design, construction, maintenance, and operation of transportation infrastructure, including highways, bridges, tunnels, and transit systems. These standards cover various aspects of transportation engineering, such as materials, design criteria, construction practices, and testing procedures. AASHTO standards are widely used by state and local transportation agencies, engineering firms, contractors, and manufacturers to ensure consistency, reliability, and interoperability in the transportation industry.
