The research develops cost effective techniques of direct access control to provide suitable access to commercial properties on arterial highways. The scope of research was limited to two-lane and multilane highways with unlimited access, where traffic volumes are high enough to produce a hazardous situation. The emphasis was on urban and suburban routes under state highway department jurisdiction. To achieve the stated objectives, the research included the following major tasks: (1) a detailed analysis to identify and functionally classify alternative access control techniques; (2) an extensive state-of-the-art synthesis to evaluate the technical, economic, and legal aspects and the traffic operational effectiveness of alternative access control techniques; and (3) the development of detailed experimental procedures for determining more precise measures of effectiveness for the more promising access control techniques.
