• Description:
  The 500-Series Data Reporting Guidebook serves as a reference for State Departments of Transportation (State DOTs) to report the data required for the 500-Series program. The 500-Series program allows State DOTs to collect data on State and local highway system funding, motor fuel distribution, licensed drivers, and registered motor vehicles and submit the collected data to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) as required under 23 CFR 420.105(b). The guidebook is a principal part of FHWA's comprehensive highway information collection effort. First issued in 1979, and formerly titled A Guide to Reporting Highway Statistics (i.e., "The Guide"), The Guide was updated numerous times since it was first issued with the latest reissuance in 1997. It provided instructions for reporting forms and other related FHWA data needs. The 500-Series Data Reporting Guidebook will be replacing The Guide that was reissued in 1997. In consultation with the States, FHWA has designed a series of reporting forms to account for motor fuel consumption; motor vehicle registrations; driver licensing; motor carrier taxation; and the source, distribution, and expenditures of funds for highways. These forms are referred to as the 500-Series forms. The 500-Series Data Reporting Guidebook is intended to improve data quality through comprehensive reporting instruction and guidance. This update of the guidebook uses visual elements and intuitive navigation features to accommodate the different levels of skill and experience of stakeholders and partners. This guidebook presents detailed procedures for the preparation and submission of 500Series forms.
