Property owners seeking traffic access to state roadways
and transportation infrastructures must submit applications
for access to NJDOT. Access applications with fewer than 500
daily trips are considered minor, while those with more than
500 are considered as major. For further guidance, see the
New Jersey State Highway Access Management Code below. Roadway
designers should also consult the code to determine access
requirements for design plans.
New Jersey State Highway Access Management Code
The rules governing access to state roadways can be found
in the New Jersey State Highway Access Management
Code.

Access Design Considerations
NJDOT has a guidance document summarizing access
design information to be provided by all designers and criteria
used to evaluate for permit applications. Consultant designers
working on access plans and cutouts for New Jersey state highways
may find this useful information in the NJDOT Access Design
Manual. This manual includes designer requirements for revocations,
modifications and adjustments of access.

Access Management Presentation
Consultant designers working on access cutouts
for New Jersey state highways may find information in the
Access Design training presentation helpful. Call NJDOT if
you have any questions relating to this training program.
The training presentation was prepared by the NJDOT Major
Access Permit Bureau Office of Access Design, which administers
the New Jersey State Highway Access Management Code. The Office
evaluates the access impacts of properties during the Scoping
stage, prepares access cutouts for in-house designs, reviews
access cutouts for projects designed by consultants and notifies
property owners about access.
