US Interstate System Eight Years Behind Schedule
Federal Highway Administrator Rex Whitton reports the 41,000 mile interstate program is eight years behind schedule with 12,550 miles completed in the past year. He cites slow federal aid and state delays, noting completion could stretch to 1951 if trends continue. He urges states to accelerate the public works program and improve project timing.
