• Abstract:
  Module 1 Overview of Access Management; Module 2 Effects of Access Management; Module 3 Land Development; Module 4 Access Location and Spacing; Module 5 Access Design; Module 6 Access Management Policy and Process; Module 7 Corridor Access Management Plans; Module 8 Legal Considerations; Module 9 Public Involvement. ; Extensive research has been conducted on the topic of roadway access management and smart land use planning, documenting many benefits of these integrated practices to safety, congestion reduction, and livability. Consequently, many agencies across the US and abroad have instituted multidisciplinary and multimodal access management programs and projects. Yet few Universities educate planning and engineering students on the theory, practice, and benefits of access management. As a result, emerging professionals are entering practice with little or no knowledge of the topic and its critical importance to the transportation system. This project will fill that gap by providing a research-based curriculum with instructional resources and real-world applications that can be readily adapted into a variety of planning and engineering course offerings.
