Good Roads Boost Farm Valuations in Several States
Montana farmers in Fergus and Gallatin counties show higher land values as good road networks expand. Federal studies across eight counties from 1910 to 1915 report farm land selling prices rising 1.0 to 3.0 times the road project cost within a mile of improvements. In Spotsylvania Virginia land values jumped 37 to 116 percent after road work, averaging 28.26 per acre. Manatee Florida records show 15 to 100 percent gains within half a mile of improved routes, suggesting bond-backed road programs may exceed costs.
