Abstract

In order to timely understand and master the latest developments of the newly published Design Manual for Roads and Bridges in the UK and provide an international reference for Chinese designers, consultants, managers, and practitioners of road engineering standardization in the industry involved in international projects, this paper adopted the literature research method and comparative analysis method. According to the main links of China’s highway standard system/revision, this paper systematically summarized the reasons, objectives, main changes, and highlights of the redesign of the Design Manual for Roads and Bridges in the UK, among which, it is worth referring to the practices of authorities for British highway standards to strengthen the digital application of standards, strengthen the implementation of standards, and integrate the concept of sustainable development into the design standard system to promote the management and application of standards.
