2002 Drainage Manual

The 2002 Drainage Manual has been revised based on the AASHTO Model Drainage Manual and now is the official source for development and application of all drainage design related to VDOT plans. The 2002 version replaces the current manual which was developed in 1980.  Future revisions and additions are expected to occur 2 to 3 times per year and those will be highlighted on  this Web site.
