Permanent highway plan urged for Iowa roads
The Good Roads Association argues for a permanent, state wide highway system funded by bonds and motor vehicle revenues. It condemns half way control and special assessments, urging voters to approve $86,000,000 in bonds to finish a lasting highway program while cutting county bond loopholes and shifting to a pay as you go system. The plan cites high costs, wasted funds, and the needs of farmers and vehicle owners alike.
