Summary

A study was made of the legal aspects of acquiring property for future highway use. Existing statutes and court decisions involving acquisition of land were analyzed to isolate the important principles which should be considered in drafting legislation authorizing the acquisition of land for future use. 15 states specifically authorize future use acquisition by statute, and 6 by judicial decision.
