Abstract:This report examines the role of the comprehensive plan in developing an access
management program, aspects of current regulatory practice that contribute to
access problems, and regulatory techniques that support access management
principles. Communities should establish a policy framework that supports
access management in the local comprehensive plan, prepare corridor or access
management plans for specific problem areas, and encourage good site planning
techniques. Land development and subdivision regulations should be amended
accordingly and communities may also consider a separate access management
ordinance. Access management programs should address commercial development
along thoroughfares, as well as flag lots, residential strips, and other issues
related to the division and subdivision of land. Comprehensive and subarea plans
provide the rationale for access management programs and can serve as the legal
basis for public policy decisions. 11p.
