A frontage road (also access road, service road, parallel road, etc.) is a local road running parallel to a higher-speed limited access road. A frontage road is often used to provide access to private driveways, shops, houses, industries or farms. Where parallel high speed roads are provided as part of a major highway these are known as Local-express lanes.

Famous quotes containing the word road:
“Youth is rather to be pitied than envied by people in years since it is doomed to toil through the rugged road of life which the others have passed through, in search of happiness that is not to be met with in it and that, at the highest, can be compounded for only by the blessing of a contented mind.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
