Case studies of the economic impacts of highway bypasses on individual towns are needed since the effects of bypasses may vary a great deal from place to place. The objectives of this report were for a sample of small Kansas towns that have highway bypasses, (1) assess the impact of the bypass on the towns' total employment, (2) measure the impact on retail sales of the towns' travel-related businesses, (3) measure the impact on employment of the towns' travel-related businesses, (4) measure the impact on labor cost per employee of the towns' travel-related businesses, and for the Kansas counties that contain the sample of small Kansas towns that have bypasses, (5) assess the incremental impact on the county's road maintenance expenditures of assuming maintenance responsibility for the previous road alignment.

"The purpose of this review was to update and review the highway bypass literature since 1994 with a view to understanding the longer‐term economic impacts of highway bypass roads and how communities have adapted and changed in response to these impacts. Focus was on literature that, with one exception, has assessed impacts long after completion of a highway bypass road. The aim was to understand those factors that influence the economic impacts of highway bypasses on communities in the longer‐term and to provide the proponent, and community, with more up‐to‐date indicators that could be considered when planning and designing bypasses. The review examined three key areas of highway bypass impacts – economic impacts, social impacts and community response and mitigation measures."--Executive summary.

This report presents an analysis of the effects of highway bypasses on the business activities of a sample of small Texas cities. An initial explanatory analysis (using a before-and-after method, matched pairs, and projected development) did not reveal a significant relationship between highway bypass construction and a change in business volumes. It can be concluded that business volumes in the more rapidly growing cities with imperfect infrastructure and relatively high local traffic benefit from highway bypass construction. On the other hand, initial econometric modeling demonstrated that a highway bypass can have a statistically significant negative effect on business volumes in the small Texas cities that were studied. The results of the econometric modeling show that the way in which a business community responds to a highway bypass is complex. The major factor determining business volumes is the city's population.

This report provides literature reviews, empirical findings and policy analysis related to some of the effects of building a highway bypass around a small town in Kansas. The report describes three types of models: an origin-destination model showing the number of trips between each town and city in Kansas; a model to estimate the value of the time-saving generated for through traffic by bypasses in Kansas; and a variety of economic impact regression models.
