State Road Commission to Take Full Maintenance Next Year
Beginning in 1926 the state road commission will assume 100 percent maintenance of the state highway system, replacing the current half funded by counties. Proceeds from gasoline tax and motor licenses may relieve counties of maintenance costs by year’s start, freeing funds for federal aid under the 26-74 plan. The state system spans about 8600 miles with 1700 on the federal network, with about 600000 expected next year from state taxes to fund roughly $200 per mile. Mr and Mrs R J Frandsen and Mr or Mrs J J Pickett traveled to Ophraim and attended Blackhawk veterans’ celebration.
