Byrd Proposes Faster Road Building plan for Virginia
The Virginia reform plan urged by Hon. Harry Byrd calls for speeding up highway construction without a large bond issue. He favors a slight gasoline tax increase for operation and a short-term emergency bond issue, aiming to appease critics of current plans while avoiding long term state debt. Byrd supports new legislation to accelerate road development and balance public sentiment against massive bonding.
