BUILD WIDE PUBLIC ROADS
They are a Great Help to Everybody?Protection
to Stock
(By Frank Weldon)
Build wide roads.
Make the main highway at
least thirty feet across.
Some counties are building
their roads entirely too narrow.
They do well for automobiles but
they are mighty inconeenent
and dangerous for th man in the
wagon or the woman 11 the buggy.
Everytime I see one of these
narrow wheeldarrow or bridle
paths I wonder why the people
who drive horses and mules stand
for them. The moterist do not
worry. They can get along if the
other folks can. Automobile owners
have cursed for years for
frightening stock, hut many aserious
accident has been due to narrow
roads and deep ditches. The
people who live on a road are the
are the ones most interested in
having it wide. They travel it
every week, while the man with th
auto may not use it more than
once or twice a year.
A wide road lasts longer than
a narrow one, and while the first
cost is greater in porporton to the
width, the life of the road is much
the longest.
Up-to-date road builders are
Up-to-date road bulders are
providing for future requirements
They know that thenotir truck
is coming, and that the present desity
of traffic will probably be
doubled in tenor fifteen years.
Traffic on rural public roads may
not increase so fast but it is steadily
growing.
Advocates of the narraw road
tell us that in some parts of Europe
the highways are only 16 to
20 feet wide. Yes,and on most of
these roads you meet women and
dogs hauling the carts, too.
On a narraw road with a high
crown evrey vehicle has to travel
in the same tracks. Consequently
ruts appear, and the road wears
away rapidly.
Make the roads wide, with the
crown not more than, one inch in
twelve. Three-quarters of an inch
to the foot is about the average
specification.
