Iowa Paving May Bring
Traffic Into Minnesota
$100,O0O,O0O Bond Plan Carried
Will Increase Traffic on Min
nesota Routes

What effect will be the approval
of the $10O,O0O,000 Iowa highway
bond issue have on traffic on Min
nesota highways, and what eff
feet will the popular approval of
the plan, by a vote Of more than
two to one have on good roads
sentiment in Minnesota?
You can make your own guess,
but here are a few facts which may
be interesting.
Approval of the bond issue mere
ly means completion OF program al
ready well started through county
bond issues. In another four
years Iowa expects to have 1888
miles of pavement and 1882 miles
of gravel in the state system.
The plan provides nine east and
west highways paved across the
state and an equal number of
north and south pavements. Five
roads will be paved to the Mime
sofa line, as follows:
U. S. 55, Dubuque through De-
corah, connecting with MINI. No.
20 south of Preston.
U. S. 21S, through Waterloo and
Charles City, connecting with
MINI. No. 40 south of Owatonna.
U. S. 65, through Des Moines
and Mason City, connecting with
MINI. No. 1 south of Albert Lea.
U. S. II, through Storm Lake
and Spencer, connecting with
MINI. No. A, south of Jackson.
U. S. rs, Council Bluffs through
Sioux City, connecting with MINI.
No. 6 south of Luverne.
Three other north and south
roads will be paved to junction
with the east and west pavement
which will run through the north
ern tier of Iowa counties, close to
the Minnesota border.
That the Iowa paving will cause
traffic from Iowa and states south
to flow towards Minnesota is APP
parent. But if the Minnesota
routes are not adequate to the in
creasing traffic, Minnesota may not
get the full benefit of this tourist

business. The fact that Iowa will
have nine paved roads east and
west may cause some Of this traf-
fic to go west or east. Sunday af-
ternoon pleasure drivers may pre-
fer the gravel roads, but long dis
lance tourists and people driving
for business reasol~ more and more
pick the pavemenrs, knowing they
are not affected by rain nor made
choppv by heavy traffic.
So far the only Minnesota route
on which paving is approaching the
Iowa line is No. I, which is paved
to the Freedom county line with
grading in progress in Freedom
county preparatory to paving.
