[Qgis-user] Polygon next to road search term

[Jon]

I would want the polygon to have road access. So you should be able to
access the polygon firectly from a road. Just a corner touching may
work but that would depend on an easement and I am having enough
trouble just trying to figure out what I should be searching on without
throwing that in as well.

So at this point, the polygon should be able to be accessed by the road
line. So possibly 20' of the road line is touching the polygon.

  Is a polygon "next to a road" because one (or more) edges of the polygon is exactly coincident with the road line? Or is it within some distance of the road line? These lead to different solutions, but unless your data is very precise, asking for the boundary to be exactly coincident with a road line is not going to be very robust.Does your road polyline feature have a road width? If so, does that factor into "next to"?
