.ARTER|AL HIGHWAY
TRAFF|CIS URGED
N. M. A. Suggests Fast
"BouIevard Stop" Auto
System for D. C..

Within the next few days the Dis
trict Commissioners will receive plans
for District system of arterial high
way traffic transportation and "boule-
ward stops" with recommendations
that the plan be adopted, according
to the decision reached yesterday by
the traffic committee of the Washing
ton branch of the National Motorists
| Association.
The arterial highway and boule-
vard-stop system is the plan of NOV
ing traffic and relieving congestion
now in effect in many large centers,
land, and said to be universally pop
ular and successful.
The committee believes that much
of the traffic problem can be solved
by the adoption of the arterial hlgn-
way system, which would mean deS-
ignating certain streets, such as loth'
for example, as arterial highways, In,
creasing the speed limit thereon and
causing all cross traffic to come to
full stop when reaching the fast ar
terry except at certain crossings
marking the intersection of the ar
terial fast traffic highway and main
laterals. Here there would be sema-
phores operated simultaneously the
length of the main traffic lane.
This system follows the theory that
the authorities must move the standing
automobile and not hinder the moving
automobile if the problem of street con-
gestion is to be met.
The whole scheme is based on the
idea that there will be number OF
fast traffic or s'clean-out'' streets, into
which all traffic will pour when going
through the city. thus relieving shop
ping streets for those who want to shop.
The arterial system in the District,
it is pointed out, would do nothing
more nor less than carry out the ideas
of the original planners of the city of
Washington. Because of the manner IN
Evening star., 1923-09-28

which Washington is laid out, it is be-
lieved that the arterial system would
be easier to install and operate here
than any other city in the country.
A distinct advantage of the system, it
is believed, is that 1t would draw the
major portion of traffic away from chan
nels usually used by pedestrians. Also
ii would draw taXicabs and other fast
traffic out of the congested sections and
send 1t down Pennsylvania avenue,
Massachusetts avenue, 18th street or
Rhode Island avenue.
There are large groups of automobile
users who at present, either through
thoughtessness or habit or personal ad-
vantage, come through the congested
section. The adoption of an arterial
system would furnish an incentive for
a large percentage of this traffic to re-
main out Of the congested district at
rush hours.
The n. NJ. a. committee also will
recommend to the District Commits
sioners that busses be ordered to stop
on the far side of all street inter-
sections, so that vehicles approaching
from their right or rear-as at pres
Evening star., 1923-09-28

ent-may have a clear view of all
other traffic.
The committee will further recon-
mend that the Washington trainc
men adopt a uniform method OF
sienaling: that night and day
semaphores be bettered with larger
lenses and shields be placed between
the red and green lights, so that only
one color is visible at time: that
the length of the day semaphore pc pc
increased by several inches: that the
lettering be more distinguishabie ana
that both lenses and blades be Kept
clean.
by the n. NJ. A. will draft the pro,
posed system and explain 1t In detdii
to the District Commissioners.
In addition TO the report OF tne
n. NJ A traffic engineers. the com =
mittee had the report of members OF
