ful aid In avoiding the construction Of
more grade crossings.
Instead Of grade crossings there will
be constructed, wherever possible. In
the future either bridge or an un.
derpass where roadway and railway
intersect. Important roads, which now
cross and recross railroad lines at
grades, hereafter will be located entire
ly on one side OF the railroad, even
though to do SO may increase the cost
OF construction.
Where crossings are unavoidable, or
where local interests justify construc-
ton Of highways TO cross railroad
lines, the road will be so located as to
pass over the track or under II. In
most instances OF this sort the rail-
roads bear one-half OF the cost of
building the bridge or underpass.
Saving Of Human Lives.
The prime object OF the depart.
ment's policy to eliminate grade cross
ings on federal-ald roads Is the saw
ing Of human lives. This policy prob
ably will involve increased expense Of
construction In the case Of some roads,
but II is believed this Is justified by
the saving Of life. During the three
years ending with 1920, according to
the best records available at the de-
partment, 3,836 lives were lost at
grade crossings In the United States
and 1854 persons were injured.
