Abstract:These guidelines are not intended to supersede Caltrans’
Transportation Planning Manual, Project Development
Procedures Manual, Highway Design Manual, Manual
on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) and
California Supplement to the MUTCD (which replaces
the Caltrans’ Traffic Manual), or other inter-Department
manuals, procedures or practices. These guidelines are
not, and should not be used as a set of standards. The
Guidelines are advisory in nature and are to be used only
when every effort to conform to established standards
has been exhausted. When conformance is not possible,
the deviation must be documented by a sound and
defensible analysis and an approved design exception
fact sheet.
The goal of these guidelines is to provide a “how to”
document for planners, designers and operators of
mainline HOV facilities. *Since individual site
characteristics vary, only typical, full standard design
scenarios can be presented. For situations not discussed,
Districts are advised to consult the appropriate District
and Headquarters representatives for advice and consent.

Program guidance, inventory, reports, and related links.
