The American Highway Association notes state funds for roads exist well before 1801. Kentucky paid over $2,000 between 1820 and 1840 under a state highway engineer with a $5,000 salary. Roads then were 24 to 30 feet wide with crushed stone surfaces and stones wedged for foundation, but work halted around 1850 and resumed in 1908 after a long gap.
