This seminar provides hands-on training for engineers and planners on
how to effectively manage accesses serving new and existing office,
commercial and industrial uses. The presentation will focus on how to
optimize the spacing and design characteristics of driveways to minimize
the impacts on major street operations as well as the potential for
crashes. The needs of all road users (motorists, pedestrians, and
bicyclists) will also be addressed. Necessary tools and good practices
for providing well planned access to a variety of development projects,
from the perspectives of both the agency and the developer proposing the
project, will be covered. The best sources of additional information on
each topic will be identified. Examples illustrating both good and bad
instances of access management and its impacts on the overall operation
of these high volume corridors will be provided.
$299 M/$349 NM 

Late Registration: Registrations must be received three days prior to
the webinar date or a $25 late registration fee will be assessed.
