| DENIED The establishment of a new U. S. route was denied in all three states for the following reasons: (1) Consideration must be given the total length of the proposed route and standard vere inadequate on some sections and do not meet the requirements set out under Item 16 of the "Purpose and Policy in the Establishment and Development of the U. S. Numbered Highways," adopted January 1, 1959; 2) There was no evidence of sufficient through traffic on the proposed route to warrant its inclusion in the U. S. Numbered System; (3) The proposed route is through the same traffic corridor served by existing U. S. routes and does not qualify in accordance with Item 5 of the above policy; (4) There is no evidence that the existing U. S. routes earning the terminal points are overcrowded and are not adequate to handle the traffic to the point where an additional or alternate route is justified; (5) The purpose of establishing the U. S. Route System was to provide the shortest and best route between major control points, and this proposal is in conflict with the policy as expressed in Item 10. ​ ||
