| 摘要： | Access management has become an increasingly important and controversial issue for the state of Iowa and other states across the nation. Implementing access management can be beneficial in several ways, including improved traffic safety and operations, higher quality corridor development, and the avoidance of more expensive and damaging methods of capacity improvement. One of the major obstacles to the successful implementation of access management principles is the significant disconnect between the agencies that administer roadways and those responsible for local land use planning and regulation. Bridging this gap is clearly a key to safety and better functioning roadways. Making this connection, though, has proven to be a difficult task. The solution involves, among other thins, improved communication between road jurisdictions and local planning agencies. A first step toward improved communication is the identification of current "best practices" as models for localities in Iowa to use. Next, a process for identifying future transportation and access conflicts is necessary. Such locations could then be designated as priority areas for increased interaction and coordinated planning. Finally, designating the best possible treatments to apply on such access projects could be accomplished through a more systematic approach. Bridging the gap between access management and land use can produce significant benefits in the success of long-range land use planning, as well as in the functioning and safety of transportation facilities. These benefits are applicable to areas within Iowa, as well as in other parts of the nation. |
