Abstract:

The Town of Parker, Colorado, is a rapidly growing residential community south of the Denver Metropolitan Area. A combination of a rural atmosphere and a 10-minute commute to the Denver Technological Center have made Parker a desirable place to live. In order to manage its rapid growth with a vision, the Town's Planning and Public Works staff have developed several documents which form a comprehensive access management program. A process has been developed to administer the access management program through review of all development proposals and negotiation of variance requests. The guiding elements of the program include: The Transportation Element of the Master Plan; The Mainstreet Access Plan; Functional classifications for streets; Access standards for each functional classification; Traffic Study Guidelines; Subdivision Agreement standards which define access and financial commitments for each development.
