| BEST ROAD IS
REALLY CHEAP
Highway Commissioner Sad
ler Gives Some Straight Talk
on Economy in Highways
Highway Commissioner Lewis S.
Sadler informed a delegation of
York countians who came here to
discuss expenditure of the two and
a half million highway loan recently
authorized by the county for road
building that the best road is the
cheapest in the end. "Why build a
cheap highway, the maintenance
cost of which in a few years woould
be greater than the first cost and
why not plan the building to care
for the traffic of the years to come,
say twenty-tlve years from now," re
j marked the Commissioner,
i The York county plan is for
I twenty miles to be built next year
and a total program covering as
much as possible within four years,
all roads to connect with State pri
mary highways. The delegation as
sured the Commissioner that plans
for all work would be taken up for
co-operation with the State and that
hard surfaced roads were favored,
•all roads to be sixteen feet wide and
to be laid down with the idea of
caring for movement of agricultural
crops and general transportation. ;
"The thing the York county road
builders must fight is the mainten
ance of the thoroughfares they put
down," Commissioner Sadler told
the delegation. "You must figure
whether it is true economy to build
a road the maintenance cost of
which is $lOO a mile per year or a
roadway of macadam the mainten
ance cost of which will be $l,OOO
to $1,500 a mile per year. The State
of Pennsylvania has a lnrge mileage
of macadam roads. On our Lincoln
Highway the maintenance cost will
average $1,500 a mile per year. In
addition, traveling public is subject>-

ed to much annoyance on this and
other macadam thoroughfares. Nec
essary oiling operations cause dis
comfort for two weeks or more each
year and every five years additional
inconvenience is caused because the
road must be entirely re-surfaced.
When you have the monev for road
construction, why not put these
roads in the right place and build
tnem right? If you do that you will
have no trouble getting more money
with which to build more roads.
The people of Pennsylvania do not
begrudge funds to public servants
who expend money wisely. I sug

which roads you wish to build first
