Sec. 13a-98a. Construction of frontage roads.
Sec. 13a-98a. Construction of frontage roads. When, in the judgment of the
Commissioner of Transportation, a frontage road will assist in the proper operation of
a limited access highway, said commissioner may agree with authorized officials of the
town in which such frontage road is or is to be located to construct such frontage road
from appropriations made to the Department of Transportation, provided the town shall
agree to assume the maintenance, responsibility, authority, liability and jurisdiction over
and accept title to such frontage road upon completion of its construction. "Frontage
road" as used in this section means a road designed to furnish access to property which
otherwise would be isolated as a result of the construction of a limited access highway,
or to preserve local road circulation.
(February, 1965, P.A. 332, S. 1; 1969, P.A. 103, S. 1; 768, S. 88.)
History: 1969 acts redefined frontage road, required towns to accept title of frontage road upon its completion and
substituted commissioner and department of transportation for highway commissioner and department.
