The MVUM is a requirement of the Travel Management Final Rule and reflects travel management decisions on each forest.  Routes not shown on the MVUM are not open to public motor vehicle travel. Routes designated for motorized use may not always be signed on the ground but will be identified on the MVUM. It will be the public’s responsibility to reference the MVUM to determine designated routes for motor vehicle use.
