Design Criteria Manual

The purpose of this manual is to provide design standards for Matanuska Susitna Borough (MSB) roadways, traveled ways, and MSB rights-of-way (ROW) that are consistent, predictable, safe, and reliable. Meeting this purpose will serve to integrate past, present, and future vehicular travelled ways, pedestrian and bicycle paths, drainage systems, traffic operations, maintenance, and enforcement. The intent of this manual is to guide designers in the development of the MSB infrastructure, specifically related to travelled ways, public facilities, and public sites and to improve operations and maintainability.
