When the Board receives an application for additional State money for constructing an access road, it shall immediately cause studies and estimates to be made to determine whether the proposed highway can be constructed according to accepted engineering standards on or near the proposed location and the cost, and whether the plans for the area, according to accepted engineering and other standards, adequately provide for vehicular and other traffic, for parking, for public utilities, and for emergency services. Upon completion of the studies, the Board shall send at least two copies of its report and recommendations to the applicant town and, upon request, to the General Assembly.
