About the Webinar
The 11th edition of the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MN MUTCD) was published in October 2025, 14 years after the previous edition. The new edition features substantial updates that reflect both national revisions and Minnesota-specific adaptations. It goes into effect on January 18, 2026.
This webinar will provide an overview of the most significant changes to the MN MUTCD, including updates to signing, pavement markings, traffic signals, and temporary traffic control. It will also explain how the requirement for substantial conformance with the National MUTCD influenced the development of Minnesota’s version.
