Abstract
Efforts to manage highway access are occasionally characterized as inconsistent with livable communities, complete streets and smart growth. One reason is the past emphasis placed on management of vehicular access, which some view as symptomatic of auto-oriented planning and therefore counter to multimodal goals. Another reason is a lack of understanding of the role of access management in advancing sustainable development and supporting walking, bicycling and transit use. This paper explores the role of access management in accomplishing a more sustainable approach to transportation and development planning in the US. Topics include land use and transportation relationships, network planning and activity center strategies, and site design concepts for urban arterial development. Policy changes are suggested.
