M -Official year-end figures show that
f the State Highway Commission has
completed 48.4 per cent of the 12,000-
mile secondary road paving goal set
by Governor Scott two years ago.
Five thousand eight hundred and
eleven miles paved since January 1,
1949, cover work done with the $200,-
000,000 bond issue and regular High
ly funds as well. The Commission
had on December 31, 1950 finished
rpughly one-!fourth of the 35,000-mile
stabilization mileage also announced
as a goal olf the Scott Administration.
Through January 1, 1901, same $62,-
000,000 of the $200,000,000 bond issue
fund had been expended by the High
way Commission. Another $55,000,000
already is allocated to specific road
projects planned for completion this
summer.
Dr. Henry W. Jordan, Highway
Commission Chairman, estimates that
the pace of roadbuilding has been
tripled during the past year over pre
ceding years largely because of the
availability of bond funds. At the
saime time more work has been finish
-1 ed on tbe primary road system than
' ever before in the Commission’s his
tory.
