extinguishment of easements and rights in connection therewith; the regulation
and restriction of access to such streets; the construction of service roads in
connection therewith; and all other authority with respect to such streets and
incidental thereto, as the Commonwealth Transportation Board has under the

granted by amendment thereof or otherwise. &#8220;Limited access street&#8221;
