Press Release

Federal Functional Classification Change Request Packet

Two roadways have a proposed change to their federal functional classifications. The Federal Functional Classification System designates Federal Aid Highways, which are eligible for federal funding. The functional classification should match how the roadway is currently used. Roadways must have a minimum classification of Collector to be eligible for federal funding.

The following information is a summary of the submitted application materials.

The City of Battlefield has requested the following changes to the federal functional classification system. The application is included.

Azalea Terrace, from Rt. FF to Cloverdale

Current Functional Classification – Local

Requested Functional Classification – Minor Collector

Major Thoroughfare Plan – Secondary Arterial

Cloverdale Lane, from Farm Road 182 (Plainview) to Azalea Terrace

Current Functional Classification – Local

Requested Functional Classification – Minor Collector

Major Thoroughfare Plan – Collector

Reasoning – Azalea Terrace is an existing Road that terminates at a drainage ditch. It is proposed that a culvert be installed, and the street extended east to connect to Cloverdale. When connected, the street will create a new connection between Highway FF and Plainview Rd in Battlefield. Currently it is estimated that over 250 homes regularly utilize the two streets and it is projected that currently approved plats (built or approved) may contribute over 580 lots to the two streets, especially when Azalea is extended.
