FEASIBLE WIDTH OF ROADS
First Deputy Highway Commissioner

Most of the roads built in New York
by the state are Is feet wide. When
money was voted for the highway sys-
tenn ii was on the basis of approx
mately $4,000 per mile. This was in
1912, and $4,000 was a low figure
even for that date Under present
conditions 1t is obviously impossible
TO complete the system as planned
then, and extra width is a serious ex-
pense. H Eltinge Breed, first deputy
highway commissioner of New York.
recently stated that only by the strict
est economy, by substituting different
classes Of pavement within certain linn
its of cost, and by using federal aid.
will it be practicable to have all the
important roads brought together into
a good highway system. 1t would be
lar better, he says, If there were suffi-
cient funds to build them Is feet wide
for two lines of traffic and q feet for
three lines. The use OF motor We
hicles is steadily increasing and they
are being constructed wider. Hence
they require pavements where vehicles
at least 90 inches wide can pass one
another comfortably and frequently.
Eighteen feet is probably the narrow
est width that permits this, according
to Mr.. Breed. Especially is this true.

concrete surface to the earth shoulder
and back again becomes really danger

But this time she was not in the least
