Driveway Permits
• Documentation issues: ◦ “P”, “SU” design vehicles not defined ◦ No guidance for larger vehicles ◦ No definition, guidance, or requirements for
“stabilized all-weather surface material” ◦ No discussion about traffic flow or TMUTCD
requirements ◦ No discussion about requirements to protect or
mitigate damage to pavement, shoulder, or roadside ◦ Casual reference to farm/ranch driveways ◦ No discussion about milestones or coordination reqs.

Strategy Recommendations
• Early notification and coordination • Road maintenance and repair • Roadside management • Funding
20
Transportation Operations Group Transportation Operations Group
Strategy Recommendations
• Early notification and coordination: ◦ Implement and maintain the geodatabase of
energy developments in Texas. ◦ Implement interagency cooperation agreements
with other agencies. ◦ Improve communication and coordination with
energy developers. ◦ Implement additional proactive mechanisms to
learn about energy developments. ◦ Work with DPS to improve traffic safety and
protect the transportation infrastructure. 21
Transportation Operations Group Transportation Operations Group
Strategy Recommendations
• Road maintenance and repair: ◦ Strengthen the use of triaxial design checks in
the current flexible pavement design method. ◦ Extend the use of nondestructive testing tools. ◦ Strengthen guidelines for cross sectional
elements on rural two-lane highways. ◦ Examine the feasibility of converting paved
roads to gravel surface roads.
22
Transportation Operations Group Transportation Operations Group
Strategy Recommendations
• Roadside management: ◦ Strengthen driveway permitting requirements. ◦ Automate the driveway permitting process.
23
Transportation Operations Group Transportation Operations Group
Strategy Recommendations
• Funding: ◦ Assess damages to pavement structures in
connection with energy developments. ◦ Use donation agreements with energy developers. ◦ Examine the feasibility of establishing driveway
permit fees. ◦ Review maintenance funding allocation formulas. ◦ Determine the feasibility of using energy-related
fees, taxes, and lease revenues for highway repair purposes.
