The purpose of this synthesis is to bring together materials and information on the design and maintenance of low volume roads. A literature search has been obtained from HRIS, NTIS and the Engineering Index. Over 1,000 questionnaires were then sent to cities, counties and consultants in the northern tier of states and the Canadian provinces. Interviews were also held with representatives of Minneapolis-St. Paul, Duluth, Hennepin and St. Louis Counties regarding their low volume road design and rehabilitation procedures.
