The way it works here is this: If you want an entrance onto the road, you apply for an access permit. They must approve the entrance for sight lines, etc. They spec the size pipe you need for the entrance and all other requirements for the entrance. You are responsible to install said entrance to their specifications. They want a deposit (basically a performance bond type thing) up front when the permit is issued, and it is refunded when the final inspection is done.... this is just to cover their costs if they have to make changes to bring it up to spec.
The bright side to this is that once you pay to have the entrance installed, THEY, forever more are responsible to maintain it. The size of the pipe and all other specs are also recorded on file, but basically, if they come and want to replace a 25 foot pipe with a 20 footer, you argue with them and YOU will win. I find that just about everything regarding the local highways department here now requires a fight because they will try to cheap out or dump the cost on anyone they can, every single time. Once they realize that you are more fight than a few hundred bucks of budget are worth, they give in and do what they're SUPPOSED to do.
Check your local laws and see what they are required to do, and hold them to it. Otherwise they're going to walk all over you.
