There is no direct access between the facilities. • Full Control of Access — Connections to a facility provided only via ramps at interchanges. No private driveway connections allowed. • Limited Control of Access Connections to a facility provided only via ramps at interchanges (major crossings) and at -grade intersections (minor crossings and service roads).

Private driveway connections shall be defined as a maximum of one connection per parcel. One connection is defined= as one ingress and one egress point. These may be combined to form a two -way driveway (most common) or separated to allow for better traffic flow through the parcel.
