MDOT CADD Support: MDOT MX Styles

The following style and feature sets have been developed for use with MX.  We have corresponding sets in both imperial and metric units, with the same file names in each.  Each of the styles also has a PSS file and a corresponding FNS (Feature Name Set) file.  Our imperial styles are in imperial_styles.zip and our metric styles are in MDOT_styles.zip.  These zip files can be downloaded from the MDOT MX Downloads Page, or from the links in this paragraph.
