Between 25% and 50% of the total cost of vehicular bridges and tunnels is expended on their approaches; and yet relatively little of the diligent research and analysis which accompanies this expenditure has been made available to the engineering profession. In this paper an attempt is made to review the more significant elements of bridge and tunnel approaches and to make suggestions for their design. The scope of inquiry comprehends three types of approaches: Direct extension, reservoir, and tapered plaza with feeder connections. These are reviewed summarily, with a brief comparison of their relative merits and disadvantages.
