Financing Highways

Excerpt: The acid test of a sound highway financing policy is its ability to support with unbroken continuity the two essentials of a successful highway program - the perfect maintenance of existing highways and a reasonable annual expansion of modem highway construction. There is no clean cut line of division, between highway financing, highway administration, and highway engineering technique. Each is so intimately related to and dependent upon the other two that they stand, succeed, or fail together.
