Abstract:

This report examines the current practices and challenges associated with the maintenance of control-of-access (C-of-A) fencing along highways, with a particular focus on the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD). C-of-A fencing is an essential infrastructure component, designed to enhance the safety, security, and operational efficiency of highways by preventing unauthorized access and reducing wildlife and pedestrian incidents. Despite its critical role, the maintenance of C-of-A fencing faces significant challenges, especially in regions such as Louisiana, where environmental conditions, high traffic volumes, and budget constraints complicate maintenance efforts.
