Managing roadway access improves traffic safety and mobility, reduces delay, and enhances the livability of major roadway users – benefits that translate into economic value to the public. Yet transportation agencies often lack the tools to effectively communicate these benefits when faced with opposition or controversy that can arise during access management decisions and projects. This interactive webinar will introduce new research-based tools in the Access Management Communication Toolkit developed for NCHRP 1032: How to Measure and Communicate the Benefits of Access Management that can be used by agency staff and their consultants to demonstrate and articulate the value of access management.

Target Audience: The target audience for this webinar is state, local, and private sector personnel responsible for transportation and land use planning, development review, and access permitting. These include planners, development services personnel, engineers, consultants, public works directors, managers, and transportation agency personnel.

Learning Objectives:

▪️Articulate the concept of access management through the lenses of safety, mobility, economy, and livability.
▪️Identify and access the many resources and tools in the Access Management Communications Toolkit.
▪️Learn how to apply the Access Management Communications Toolkit to explain the benefits and costs of access management decisions.
