Law To Raise Funds For Primary Secondary And Urban Roads
Lester C. Rogers of Chicago, vice president of the Associated General Contractors of America, says contracts exceeding 100 million dollars for highways and bridges will be awarded by state highway departments within the next two months. The taxes will add about 14.89 billion dollars over 16 years, pooled with present highway taxes and limiting yearly government expenditures to the pool. The Bureau of Public Roads estimates a motorist driving 10,000 miles annually would pay about 8.69 dollars more, but the system could save up to 3,500 lives per year in highway accidents.
