While Vermont does not have a formalized CSS program, VTrans generally follows the methods outlined in the Vermont State Design Standards. Adopted in 1997, VT State Design Standards, by VT Legislative Rules, take precedence over AASHTO Standards. They emphasize flexibility in design and the use of extensive public input and participation.

Often, VTrans sets up Local Steering Committees. These committees are made up of local citizens and local and state representatives. They meet periodically with VTrans representatives to discuss project issues and concerns and to review plans.
