New uphnlt motor roads laid In the United State; 1.10;:3 would dretel‘
: three times across the country. '
That road building in the United
States this year will far outdis-
times 1923 construction is indi-
cated by the vast amount of work
now under way. The open winter.
{enabled contractors to do conside-
rable winter work especially in the
east and south and to begin much
earlier this spring. Consequently
the season is more advanced than
at this time last. year. With a
late fall and winter 1924 road
building will smash all records.
According to the U. 8. Bureau of
Roads the mileage oi.’ surfaced
highways in this country is now
well over 400,000 miles, of which
35,000 miles were constructed in
1922 and 40,000 miles in 1923. It
is confidently predicted that: the‘
present season will see close to
£60,000 miles of surfaced highways
:sdded to the country’s network of
good roads. This system now em-
braces 2,819,386 miles of highways.
all told. 0f the 400,000 miles of
improved roads 175,000 miles are
gravel, 100,000 are macadam. 25,-
000 are concrete, 10,000 are brick,
stone block and miscellaneous types
and 30,000 miles are sheet asphalt,
asphaltic concrete and other as-
phaltic types.
3 Due to recognition of their
‘shock-absorbing propensities under
heavy traffic as well as their re-
histance to moisture and tempera-
ture changes, there has been a tre-
endous increase the past six
gears in asphalt highways. ‘Last
gear 102,000,000 square yards of
._ sphalt pavement were 'honstruc-
gted, — _an increase of 20,000,000
Srsquare‘ yards over 1922, and suf-
ficient to construct 9,680 miles’of

great roadway carrying six lines
of motor traffic.
City types of paving have in-‘
vaded the rural districts to such anf‘
extent that, of the types higher
than waterbound macadam, as-'
phalt roads now predominate. The,
extraordinary demand for smooth,-
shock-absorbing pavements is fdue~
to the fact. that 15,092,177 motor?
vehicles now use American high-f
ways as well as to the progressive
spirit of American rural com-'
munities which have come more
fully to appreciate the fact that
their prosperity is in proportion to
their accessibility and is, therefore,'
largely a matter of good roads.‘
Thus it is that in California.’
Oregon, Washington, Nevada and‘
Arizona, for instance, the yardage.
of asphaltic base (“Black Base”)§
pavements alone has increased 800
per cent in six years. _ .
The Michigan, Virginia and
North Carolina departments are
now using asphalt base pavements}
on some of .their trunk line roads.“
The Brush College road is the first
“Black Base” highway in Iiiinois.’
Several other states which hereto-,
fore ,have built rigid pavements
are considering “Black Base.” é
Asphaltic pavements comprise
54.9 per cent 1 all pavements
higher than we rbound macadam;
in the 65 cities of the country
having 100,000 or more population.
Percentages for other types in
these cities follow: Brick, 19.9 per' ‘
cent; wood block 4 per cent; stone
block 14.5 per cent; portland ce-‘
ment concrete 3.5 per cent, and
miscellaneous 1.4 per cent. Because
