Extracting the closest Point to a Line within a Polygon using ArcGIS for Desktop


I have the following shapefiles:




  • Polyline: Detailing a road network.

  • Polygon: Containing approx. 2000 polygons enclosing sections of that road network.

  • Point: Containing numerous (OS Addressbase) points falling within each of the polygons.


Using ArcGIS for Desktop, I would like to identify and extract to a new shapefile the point within each polygon that is closest to the road network, and also calculate the distance that each closest point is from the road network.
