Abstract:

This paper draws on access management program experience in Colorado, New Jersey and Florida to present a prototype outline of an access management regulation. Four standardized paragraphs concerning the justification for access regulations are provided that address the benefits of an access management program including the preservation of functional integrity, enhanced mobility, increased capacity and improved safety. These are followed by a summary of the regulatory elements necessary to establish the statutory authority for an access management program at the state level. These elements include purpose, responsible agency, permitting, enforcement, and an appeals procedure. A prototype regulation that would reflect such enabling legislation is presented as the last section of the paper.
