In March 2000, FHWA, AASHTO and the Transportation Research Board (TRB) jointly sponsored an international scanning study to observe right-of-way and utility coordination practices in four European countries. The scanning study delegation identified practices used in the selected countries that, if implemented in the U.S., will help ensure timely procurement and clearance of highway right-of-way and adjustment of utilities. Findings and observations in this report are grouped into the following chapters (Appraisal and Acquisition; Compensation and Relocation; Training; Utilities; and Project Development) and includes primary findings the team believes have the most significance and/or implementation value. Other observations that may have potential implementation value in the United States are also included.
