If real property held by one owner is severed by a Freeway or Controlled Major Highway, the Director of Transportation may provide for access across the Freeway or Controlled Major Highway from one such tract to the other, either at grade or below or above grade, on such conditions as the Director sets. Any connecting road or roads must not be used for or in connection with the conduct of any roadside business or enterprise. If the affected land is no longer held under one ownership, the Department may discontinue any access road.
In acquiring property for any purpose listed in the three preceding sections, the Director must fully inform the owners of the use and restrictions of the property. (1966 L.M.C., ch. 13, § 1; 2007 L.M.C., ch. 8, § 1; 2008 L.M.C., ch. 5, § 1.)
Editor’s note—2008 L.M.C., ch. 5, § 3, states: Sec. 3. Any regulation in effect when this Act takes effect that implements a function transferred to another Department or Office under Section 1 of this Act continues in effect, but any reference in any regulation to the Department from which the function was transferred must be treated as referring to the Department to which the function is transferred. The transfer of a function under this Act does not affect any right of a party to any legal proceeding begun before this Act took effect.
