description abstractToday's 180,000,000 automobiles, trucks, and buses are creating crisis‐level highway traffic problems in many locations. The two items making up highway transportation costs, the vehicle and the road, are out of balance because of inadequate attention to the roadways. The challenge of a free society is to follow through with long‐range programs such as the Interstate Highway System, the initial construction of which is nearing completion 18 years behind schedule. Many studies are underway to determine the next program for emphasis. While the basic framework is now in place, much now requires reconstruction, rehabilitation, and in some areas, enlargements and adjustments to meet increasing and changing traffic patterns. Additional research is needed, as is a greater emphasis on safety. An effective highway transportation public information program is essential, as well as a positive approach to solving highway problems.
