North Carolina's Highway System Size and Growth
North Carolina built and funded a growing road network in the early 20th century. A 1920s reform created a state Highway Commission to supervise roughly 5 509 miles of roads and issued bonds totaling 50 million dollars for construction. The legislature later expanded bond authorizations and centralized control under state authority, reshaping county systems and funding to accelerate roadbuilding nationwide.

State Highway Bonds Transform Postwar Roads and Growth
Postwar expansion of the state highway system hinges on bond funding and a raised gasoline tax. Governor Scott pushes for a 200 million dollar road bond and a seven cent gas tax to fund a broad secondary road program, with ten percent reserved for equalization and early allocations for road equipment. The Highway Commission accelerates primary and secondary road projects, cooperates with municipalities, and eyes rapid resurfacing of miles already identified.
