37 Miss. Code R. § 1-8501-06010-103

Current through December 10, 2024
Section 37-1-8501-06010-103

Highway functional classification is the procedure by which highways, roads, and streets are grouped into classes or systems according to their usage by the public. Recognition that individual roads do not serve traffic independently, that most traffic involves movement through a network of roads, is basic to the functional classification process. Access to abutting land at the beginning or end of travel are characteristics of road networks. Functional classification defines the part each road plays in a rural or urban network. Three broad classes of rural and urban road systems are defined: Arterials, Collectors, and Locals.
