The Value of Good Roads

The benefits to be derived from
good roads may be classified as ec-
onomic and social Among the
economic benefits the most apparent
and without doubt the most impo.-
tant is that of the reduced cost oi
hauling. From statistics gathered ~
the office of Public Roads of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture it has been determined that
the average cost of hauling over the
country roads of the United States
is from % to 25 cents per ton per
mile while the average cost on good
roads in the United States and for
eign countries is from 10 to II cents
per ton per mile The cost Of hauling
and the saving due to good roads
was based on the tractive force or
power required to pull load on diff
ferent kinds Of roads.
We are told that the approximate
power required to pull one ton on
good clay road is 125 pounds; on the
best gravel road, IS pounds; on a
macadam road, As pounds; and on a
brick road, 26 pounds. We are also
, told that the average size horse will
pull pressure against his collar all
day long of 1875 pounds. On this
basis he will, threfore, draw one ton
on a good clay road; 2-3 on a gra-
vel road; 2 3-4 tons on macadam
road; and tons on brick road. On
a five per cent grade however, a
horse can draw only about IL as
much on a level road and on 10 per
cent grade only about IA as much.
This factor though does not change
materially by improving the road for
the steepest hill on road fixes the
size of load that can be hauled to
market.
Without going in the techr;ca! side
Of improving roads or discussion Of
the methods employed it may be said
that the improvement for hauling
purposes is due to the betterment Of
the road surface, the reduction OF
the grade of the road and the short
ening of the length of the haul. It
must be seen therefore that on a
road improved thus that the time re-
quired to haul given load a given
distance is reduced. This reduction
