Buses in operation in 1927 ex-
ceeded the registration of the pre-
vious year by $3.50. This is slight
falling off in the rate of gain. Of
the 1855 in service, $4,000 were
school busses. Common bus car
riers increased by 1850, while school
busses gained S,100.
Bus operation, at one time the
most speculative of business ven
lures, is now on a sound footing
with every State in the Union we'll
threaded with motor coach lines.
Better Roads Aid
The widespread development of
these bus systems, of which there
are more than 1000 in this coun
try, is due in a great measure to
improved roads, through riding com
fort and adherence to schedules. A
highway authority recently pointed
out that so far as he knew there
wasn't a single long stretch OF
rural concrete in the United States
over which bus line was not
operated.
Modern motor coaches weighing
as much as five tons may deal the
tons per wheel as they spin along
the highway. Naturally earth roads
or other low type thoroughfares
cannot stand the strain.
Highway builders now consider
the expected bus traffic in designing
roads. II this were not done
cheaper roadways entirely made
quate for heavy traffic might be
installed, causing a great deal OF
road sorrow later on.
Bus travel so far has been largely
confined to short-trip passengers.
There is growing indication, how
ever, that heightened pavement sys.
TENS will bring about a greater
radius of travel for the bus.
One transcontinental bus system
reports that the average length OF
trip per passenger out of the San
francisco terminal last year was
LII miles. This is. of course, un'
usual.
Present-day motor coaches, with
their easy riding equipment. viii
doubtless sharpen the appetite OF
the moving public for motor travel
