(2) After the establishment of any controlled-access highway or facility, a private or public highway or street that is not a part of the highway or facility may not intersect it at grade, except as may be provided in the resolution designating it a controlled-access highway or facility. A street, road, highway, or other public or private way may not be opened into or connected with any controlled-access highway or facility without the prior consent and approval of the appropriate highway authority that adopted the controlled-access resolution.

The commission has sole jurisdiction to determine the existence and location of any intersection with interstate highways, throughways, and other commission-designated highway systems and state highways.
