Reducing the number of driveways along a corridor reduces conflict points and generally improves traffic flow. This general concept is often difficult to implement on existing arterials, but can be a consideration for a larger access management plan for a particular corridor or subarea plan. The FDOT District Planning office conducts long term planning, for which access management is a topic of consideration. FDOT District Traffic Operations approves immediate access changes. FDOT District Four recently began holding workshops for Planning and Traffic Operations staff to coordinate in approving access changes.
