The federal government does not issue road standards. Many communities rely on standards issued by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). But these standards, contained in A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets (commonly referred to as the “Green Book”), do not have any requirements that would prevent Complete Streets treatments.
