Current through August 31, 2024
Section 37-1-7501-06001-405 - Access for Servicing Utilities:
1. Access for servicing a utility along or across a freeway should be limited to access via (a) frontage roads where provided, (b) nearby or adjacent public roads and streets, or (c) trails along or near the highway right-of-way lines, connecting only to an intersecting road.
2. In those special cases where utility supports, manholes, or other appurtenances are located in medians or interchange areas, access to them from through-traffic roadways or ramps may be permitted, but only by permits issued by the Department to the utility owner setting forth the conditions for policing and other controls to protect highway users.
3. Where utilities are located outside the control of access line and where such utilities may require maintenance from within the freeway right-of-way, a permit must be obtained from the Department. Advance arrangements should also be made between the utility and the Department for emergency maintenance procedures.
