lit ROAD HIM
PROGRAM IS HEAD
ISO,(MAO MILES IMPROVED HIGH- 1
WAYS BE BUILT. ESTIMATE
C OST #17,000 PER MILE. THE
PROGRAM IS NEW ONE.
Fifteen to twenty years of build
ing gooc. roads lie ahead of the United
States. Under the program which the;
country has adopted there will be
built during that time, 180,000 miles (
of improved highways which will con
stitute the Federal-aid highway sys-j
tern and an equal or greater mileage .
of State and local goads. When the
great job is done, the transportation
facilities es the country will far ex
ceed those of any other nation, past
or present, in the world. The high- 1
ways of the ancient Romans, whose j
fame has come down through the ceu- \
'< turies. will pale by comparsion.
Details of the vast road-builoing
| program are to be placed before the j
Highway Education Board at is con
' ference in Washington, October 26 to
j 2S. Inclusive, by State highway engi
neers and officials of the Bureau of
Public Roads. United States Depart
- ment of Agriculture, to whom has
been entrusted' the work of planning |
and supervising the construction of
Federal-aid highways. The plan will,
be presented to enable the board to j
proceed authoritatively with its work
! of devising aius for schools and col- j
' leges to which road-builders of the
country are turning for competent
highway engineers.
Officials of the bureau place the ag
gregate cost of the Federal-aid pro
gram alone at about *3.000,000.000,
spread over the twenty-year period.
The base this stimate on an average
cost of #17.000 per mile The aver
age cost, in turn, takes into consld
! eration all classes of improved road
; wavs from the cheapest to the most
; expensive types. Approximately one
■ thtrd of the proposed system, or 60,-.
i 000 miles of improved highways, »l
--1 ready are either built or building
> The program is ft new one. Up to
• comparatively recent years, roac
building in the United States had beeft
conducted without special regard to
a national system. Highways had been
constructed' where needed without
considering whether they would link
up in the most effective manner with
the whole net work of roads to be
spread over the nation. Engineers
had looked more to immediate and
local demands than the broaded re
quirements of the states and! nation.
The present Federal-aid road-build
ing program, official of the bureau
state, will contemplate the construc
tion of only such roads as fit into the
| national program and contribute to j
t the national system. At the same
! time the roads will be so selected as
' to serve the most important local re-
I quirements. With marked modifica
i tions, the system adopted in building
I the railways of the country will be
■ borne in mind in the construction of
the country’s new highways. There
will be main lines of highway com
munication between centers and
