This publication may be ordered online at: https://bookstore.transportation.org/item_details.aspx?ID=114
Notes: ISBN Number: 1-56051-295-4 “This guide suggests methods and designs for dedicated facilities to encourage greater use of existing transportation systems, such as increased use of public transit (primarily buses), carpools, vanpools, or other ridesharing modes to help attain the above goals. Guidance is given for planning and design of preferential treatment for high-occupancy vehicles “ (AASHTO, 2006).
AASHTO. Guide
for Park-and-Ride Facilities, 2nd Edition. 2004
This publication may be ordered online at: https://bookstore.transportation.org/item_details.aspx?ID=121
Notes: ISBN Number: 1-56051-294-6 “Information presented in this guide is intended to provide a general knowledge of the park-and-ride planning and design process. Applicable local ordinances, design requirements, and building codes must be consulted for their affect on the planning and design process. Local data resources, development patterns, and transit networks may present unique opportunities for park-and-ride implementation, and should be explored.
Chapter content includes: Defining the Park-and-Ride System, Park-and-Ride Planning Process, Operations and Maintenance of Park-and-Ride Facilities, Design Considerations for Park-and-Ride Facilities, and Architecture, Landscape, and Art: Integral Parts of the Park-and-Ride Facility” (AASHTO, 2006).

Notes: [GHC-4] “Now with step-by-step design examples, this title
supercedes the 1993 edition of Guide Specifications for Horizontally
Curved Highway Bridges (formerly GHC-3). It reflects the extensive research
on curved-girder bridges that has been conducted since 1980 and many
important changes in related provisions of the straight-girder specifications”

AASHTO. Guidelines for Geometric Design of Very Low-Volume Local Roads (ADT < 400), 1st Edition. 2001
This publication may be ordered online at: https://bookstore.transportation.org/item_details.aspx?ID=157
Notes: “[This publication] addresses the unique design issues highway designers and engineers face when determining appropriate cost-effective geometric design policies for very low-volume local roads. This approach covers both new and existing construction projects. Because geometric design guidance for very low-volume local roads differs from the policies applied to high-volume roads, these guidelines may be used in lieu of A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets, also known as the Green Book” (AASHTO, 2006).
AASHTO. Highway-Rail Crossing Elimination and Consolidation.
1995

Roadside Design Guide, 3rd Edition. 2006
“A synthesis of current information and operating practices related to roadside safety presented both in metric and U.S. customary units. The searchable CD-ROM of the text is included” (AASHTO, 2006).
Notes: ISBN Number: 1-56051-326-X “ This guide replaces the 1984
publication entitled An Informational Guide for Roadway Lighting. It has
been revised and brought up to date to reflect current practices in roadway
lighting. The guide provides a general overview of lighting systems from
the point of view of the transportation departments and recommends minimum
levels of quality. The guide incorporates the illuminance and luminance
design methods, but does not include the small target visibility (STV)
method.
Notes: “Replaces the 16th edition and its interims (1997–2003). The structural design standards used by state bridge engineers, engineering colleges and universities, and practicing engineers worldwide. Now features separate tables of contents for figures and tables. Updates provided on bridge web site for download and printing. For the first time, includes easy-to-use CD-ROM (HB-17-CDM)" (www.AASHTO.org).
