Roads weigh limits eyed as WPA projects face delays
The State Roads Commission studied weight reductions on Maryland roads and warned engineers to monitor for leasing on WPA road projects. They pressed for restoring pay cuts from 1933 and ordered a 12,000 pound reduction for a 90-day period on specific highways. Two Frederick area routes were affected while weather and cold slowed progress. Dr Homer E Fadler and Dr Tabler urged periodic inspections and threatened to withdraw sponsorship if Allegany and Hancock projects lagged.
