SPECIFICATIONS
A driveway approach is understood to be that portion of the highway right-of-way between the pave-
ment edge and the property line which is designed and used for the interchange of traffic between the
roadway pavement and the abutting property.
At any intersection of a State Highway with another highway, road, or street, where right-of-way has
been acquired to provide sight distance, no driveway approach shall be permitted within the frontage
thereof. At any other intersection, a driveway shall be restricted for a sufficient distance from the
intersection to preserve the normal and safe movement of traffic. (It is recommended for rural residence
entrances that a minimum intersection clearance of 50 feet be provided and for rural commercial entrances
a minimum'of 100 feet be provided. For similar installations in urban or suburban areas, a minimum of 20
feet for both residence and commercial entrances is recommended.)
All entrances and exits shall be so located and constructed that vehicles approaching or using them will
be able to obtain adequate sight distance in both directions along the highway in order to maneuver
safely and without interfering with highway traffic.
Driveway locations for ingress and egress must be reasonable from the viewpoint of the traveling public
in that no unusual hazard to pedestrians or motorists shall be created, nor shall the driveway(s) invite
or compel vehicular movements in directions or locations contrary to those for which the highway was
designed, neither shall they invite or compel illegal or unsafe traffic movements.
No entrance or approach shall be located or constructed so as to interfere with or prevent the proper
location or functioning of any traffic regulating device. The Applicant shall not be permitted to erect
any sign or display material, either fixed or movable, on or extending over any portion of the highway
right-of-way.
Generally, no more than one approach shall be allowed any parcel of property the frontage of which
is less than one hundred (100) feet. Additional entrances or exits for parcels of property having a
frontage in excess of one hundred (100) feet shall be permitted only after showing of actual conveni-
ence and necessity.
All driveways shall be so located that the flared portion adjacent to the traveled way will not encroach
upon adjoining property.
No commercial driveway shall have a width greater than thirty-five (35) feet measured at right angles
to the centerline of the driveway, except as increased by permissible radii. No noncommercial driveway
shall have a width greater than twenty-four (24) feet measured at right angles to the centerline of the
driveway, except as increased by permissible radii.
The axis of an approach to the highway may be at a right angle to the centerline of the highway and of
any angle between ninety (90) degrees, and sixty (60) degrees but shall not be less than sixty (60)
degrees. Adjustment will be made according to the type of traffic to be served and other physical
conditions.
Permissible radii on driveway returns shall be governed by such factors as width of drive and angular
placement. Where the flared edge of an approach controls the turning radius of a vehicle entering a
property by a right turn from the adjacent outside traffic lane of the roadway, the radius of that edge
shall be not less than twenty (20) feet where the approach is to be used by passenger cars and single -
unit trucks and not less than fifty (50) feet where all types of vehicles may be expected.
A safety island or buffer zone shall be constructed and maintained between adjoining driveway approaches
to a State Highway. Size and shape of such restricted islands shall be determined according to existing
lot frontage, right-of-way depth, and angle of entry but a minimum length of ten (10) feet at the shoulder
line shall be required for the island separator. Curbs or posts, or other suitable methods of island desig-
nation and protection as approved by the Department, shall be provided to prevent vehicle parking
and access in the restricted island area.
The construction of parking or servicing areas on the highway right-of-way is specifically prohibited.
Off -the -road parking facilities should be provided by commercial establishments for customers' vehicles.
The grade of entrance and exit shall slope downward and away from the road surface at the same rate
as the normal shoulder slope and for a distance equal to the width of the shoulder but in no case less
than ten (10) feet from the pavement edge. Approach grades are restricted to not more than 10%.
All driveways and approaches shall be so constructed that they shall not interfere with the drainage sys-
tem of the street or highway. The Applicant will be required to provide, at his own expense, drainage
structures at entrances and exits which will become an integral part of the existing drainage system.
The dimensions of all drainage structures must be approved by the Department representative prior to
installation.
