CALIFORNIA STATE HIGHWAY
MILEAGE AND FUNDS

BY the end of the present fiscal year
California will have completed around
3,007 miles of it's state highway pro-
gram, or about half the mileage incor-
porated in the state system by the var
ious bond and legislative acts pertain
ing to highways. In addition to this
3,007 miles are GAG miles of special APP
preparation roads which are not in
cluded in the list of completed high
ways. Some of these 946 miles are equal
to the state highway standard for
finished roads, but the majority will
need radical reconstruction The total
mileage in the state system for both
building and maintenance is over $500
miles or close to 10 per cent of all de-
dicated public roads in the state, cx
elusive of incorporated cities.
OF the 3,0O7 miles built by the Cali
fornia highway commission, 1866 miles
are concrete base roads, with or without
asphaltic surfacing, 305 miles are paved.
roads of other types and 937 miles are
graded roads.
Since January of this year, the com
mission has contracted for l03 miles OF
new construction; 46 miles of gravel
surfacing and 80 miles of asphalt sur
facing. It's program for the year calls
for $l5,000,000 in new highway con
struction.
During 1921 average costs for the
different types of roads were roughly
as follows:
Graded roads $4,000 per mile.
Bituminizcd macadam $2l, 900 per
mile
Concrete base $4,000 per mile.
Bituminous pavement $4,000 per
mile.
The total expenditures Of the depart
ment to April /, 1922, exclusive Of
Motor Vehicle funds, which arc used al
most exclusively for maintenance,
amounts to $52,646,0Sd, and the csti-
mated unobligated balance available
from all sources, exclusive OF Motor We
hiclc funds, is 33,700,0o0 At the
present rate Of construction these funds
will be largely obligated during 1922
and 1923.
