Georgia ANNUAL REPORT OF THE STATE HIGHWAY BOARD. Atlanta. Ga.. }fay 1. 1923. To His Excellency, Hon. Thos. \\'. Hardwick, Governor of Georgia, State Capitol, Atlanta. Georgia. Complying with the requirements of the law the State Highway Board submits herdith its annual report which covers the operations and expenditures of the State Highway Department from December 31, 1921 to December 31, 1922. The total amount received last year from the Motor Vehicle Tax fund, the only source of State revenue of the State Highway Department. was :fl./62.339.9-t. The report of the auditors shows the following: Total receind from Treasurer and Interest in 1923..........$1,764.794.67 Surveys. Plans. Tests, Inspections and construction administration costs ....... ........... 233,198.50 Difference is net amount available for construction and maintenance of State roads and distributed as follows: 1,531,596.17 Maintenance and Construction ....$1,374,596.76 89.749'/r Administration . 97.651.88 6.390'/r Incidentals ....... 2,255.54 0.147'/r Office Equipment ................. 3,354.11 0.212'/r Auto Expense ............... 5,953.33 0.388~'( Elbert Quarry Equipment and Materail .... 12,158.09 0.794'/r Construction Equipment Depot.. 35,526.46 2.320'/r Money spent for construction of Equipment Depot has been re- funded from funds accumulated by exchange of surplus war material unsuitable for road purposes. The total amount expended by the State Highway Department in 1922 for all purposes was $4,980,857.41. The administration expenses were $271,532.99 or 5.45%. The total amount of money spent by the State Highway Department in 1920. 1921 and 1922 up to December 31, 1922, has been $20,040,124.09. The cost of handling this has been: Administration, .0332: Plans al}d surveys, .0178; Total, .0510. Very few States can boast of lower overhead. It should be borne in mind that the Motor Vehicle Fund pa)!S all overhead expenses of Federal Aid Projects except that the Federal Government pays one-half the expenses of Inspection while a project is under construction. But for this expense required by the Federal Government and our State Laws, much more of the Motor Vehicle fund would go into actual construction or maintenance. If the State however, State must pay for plans. surveys, engineering and supervision out of the Motor Vehicle fund. The cost of roads and bridges to January 1, 1923 is $16.680,802.18. Estimated cost of roads and bridges under construction to Jan. 1, 1923 is $7,517,811.28. Estimated cost of roads and bridges for which funds have been provided and plans made is $5.365,896.49, making a grand total of $29,565,509.95. The total amount of bridges on the State Aid Road System is 170,000 line_ff P4TC.OU'I'Ial ~ I l LA80R 4. Tractors and trailers should be required to pay license fee. 5. Use of dealer's tags should be more restricted. 6. Number plates should be placed on both front and rear of all vehicles and operators should be required to keep plates legible. 7. Census of cars taken in certain towns, show the number of cars without tags out of a total and 80 counted was 39. This prove' that many car owners are failing to pay license tag tax, which is not fair to the man who buys tags nor the State. Provision should be made for better enforcement of this law. 8. Basis of tax should be changed so that vehicles will pay according to the horse power, gross weight of vehicle and loads, and solid. pneumatic or metal tires. 9. The gross weight of truck and load should be limited and a maximum weight per inch of tire width should he fixed. 10. The speed of trucks should be limited, consideration being given to the weight of the truck and kind of tires. The present law in regard to public roads crossing railroads is as follows: RAILROAD CROSSINGS: All railroad companies shall keep in good order, at their expense. the public roads or private ways established pusuant to law. where crossed by their several roads, and build suitable bridges and make proper excavations or embankments, according to the spirit of the road laws. This law was passed in 1838 and evidently the General Assembly had in mind passing the above law grade crossings only. It is the policy of the Federal Government and the Highway Department of Georgia to eliminate every grade crossing possible. When this is practicable it is done by re-locating roads. When they cannot be eliminated by relocating, then if passible they are eliminated by underpass or overhead bridge. The question is how should the expenses in building underpasses or overhead pridges be horne. This question comes before the Board frequently and the suggestion is made to the General Assembly to declare how the above expenses should be borne. Whether all expenses in crossing the right-of-way should be borne by the railroad or shall the county and railroad divide the expenses and in what proportion. The Attorney-General has been of incalculable benefit to us in paosing upon a humber of legal questions which have arisen from time to time and have come before the State Highway Board for consideration. Every legal question connected with the operations of the State Highway Department that has been submitted to the Attorney General has been promptly passed upon by him and we are profoundly grateful to him for every courtesy shown to the State Highway Board and for every service rendered. It is nnpo:,sible to dispense with legal services to the State Highway Department. but it is very important that this legal assistance come from the office of the Attorney General anq a suggestion is made to you that additional help be furnished to the office of the Attorney GeneraL 7 Some criticism has been directed at this Department. Some has come irom persons who have the best interest of the State at heart and who earnestly desi~e to see the Department achieve the very best results. This criticism is welcomed at all tin'tes hy the entire State Highway Department. Some criticism, however, has been unfair, unjust and without foundation of fact. Every transaction, every fact. every piece of work and every record is open to the public for inspection, investigation and careful analysis. The State Highway Department not only will welcome, but earnestly urges the L~gislature to make a careful scrutiny of everything that the State Highway Department has done. Alreay the books of the State Highway Department have been carefully audited by Dawson & Eidson. expert accountants appointed by Your Excellency to do this work. Their report is made a part of our report to your Excellency. In their report they say: "The books have been neatly and accurately kept and reflect credit to those responsible. \Ve found that all vouchers and supporting papers had been systematically filed which enabled us to complete our examination in a minimum of time, and we take this occasion to thank the officials and employees for the courteousconsideration shown our representative during the course of the examination." The operations and expenditures of the State Highway Department have recently been rigidly examined by the Federal Government. This report when received will he given the widest publicity. County Commissioners. Legislators and citizens have not only been invited. but importuned to visit the State Highway Department and spend as much time as they wish in making a careful examination of its work. This Department is open to any citizen every day for an examination of its work and expenditures. Some mistakes may have been made. but this Department has endeavored to render careful. faithful and conscientious service to the State. Let the white light of examination iall on every transaction of the Department; no apprehension is felt hy the Members of the State Highway Board. Yours truly, JOHN N. HOLDER. Chairman. R. C. NEELY. STAN LEY S. BENKETT. LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL. Jan. 1, 1923. Members of the State Highway Board, Hon. John N. Holder, Chairman. Sirs: It gives me a great deal of pleasure to sabmit to you my report covering the activities of the various departnwnts of the State Highway Department for the year 1922. Statistics show the accomplishments during the year by the State Highway Department aided by the co-operation of the Federal Government in constructing the State Highway system of roads, to be of great magnitude, most notable among these being the building of bridges, Georgia leading every state in the Union both in mileage and bridges completed and also in value. Georgia is second in mileage of Federal Aid highways completed, third in amount of Federal Aid actually paid to any State in the Union and fourth in value of Federal Aid roads and bridges completed. (Report of Secretary of Agriculture, U. S. A., 1922). This. in the face of so many handicaps such as lack of a State fund with which to match the Federal Aid fund, entitles the heads of the several departments both Federal and State employees and most especially the County Commissioners to the hearty commendation of the people of Georgia. The record of roads and bridges completed and funds allocated for such projects, indicates that the benefits derived from the assistance of our Federal Government have reached into every county of Georgia with the exception of seventeen. In studying the records I find that in one of these counties, Lamar, a road project was started within the confines of this new county before its creation. This county, at that time, being a part of Pike County. Before the project was completed, Lamar County was created and in order to secure the completion of the project, the State Highway Department provid~d funds for this purpose. Therefore, in reality, only sixteen counties should be included in this list. 1 find that three of these sixteen counties had Federal Aid alloted, plans and surveys completed by the Departfnent, but for son1e reason the work was never carried out by these counties. Recently, allotments of funds have been made to three oi the remaining thirteen, thus leaving only ten counties in the State in which funds have not been alloted for the construction of roads and bridges. In spite of the great number of miles of ne\\'ly built roads and bridges on the State system, there still remains to be constructed a number of essential bridges and an extensive mileage of important sections of roads on our heavily traveled highways that will probably never be constructed until the Highway Department is proyidecl with a State fund for this purpose. 9 A careful study of the attached detailed report showing funds raised by the counties for the construction of State roads would indicate that a large majority of them have already reached their limit in financing this work and I am led to believe that a great number should have reserved this expenditure of their county funds for their county roads. However. if the State system of roads is to he completed it will be necessary to provide a State fund for this purpose, at least. to the extent of matching Federal funds of approximately two million dollars annually. Eighty per cent of the people of Georgia are within only a iew miles of the State High\\ays and since there has already been a tremendous improvement within the Jast three years of the 5.500 mik sy,km, thru new construction and systematic maintenance the concentration of traffic on this comparatively ,;mall system (being only 7' ( oi the entire road mileage oi the entire State) has made innnediately necc,;,;ary the providing of iuncb for paving certain section,; of this sy,;tl'm at once and continuing thcreaiter the paving of these main artcrie,; a, rapidly as funds, labor and material can he mack available. Even should we begin this important work at once it cannot he accomplished rapidly enough to keep pace "ith the constant!) increasing traffic upon which the prosperity, happiness and health oi our people so vitally depends.

In each division there is one person acting as property clerk and reporting direct to our Property Auditor in the Genna] ofiicc in Atlanta. Each property clerk is undn bond, signs personally for all propertv sent into his division, and is held personally responsible for this property. \\"c han found that in addition to kecping up \vith equipment, our proper!\ clerks are able to gather (from their practical maintenance men) irom their own experince and observation. and from the different construction gangs, and reports. ,-aluahlc information concerning the real \HJrth to the Department of the various equipment. This infonnation is cardully kept tn a way to lw oi immetbl' help in determining just \\-hat nnv equipment should he bought front time to time. PROVIDING 1923 EQUIPMENT Each division engineer \vas so closely in touch with the quality and condition oi the property in his O\\-n division, that he \vas able, early in December, to forward to the General Office requisitions listing the new cquipmcnt needed for the 1923 maintcnance and construction program. PROPERTY ON HAND JANUARY 1, 1923 fn our January I, 1923 inventory e\ery precaution was taken to in- ,;ure accuracy in determining not only the quantity, hut the present value of equipment. This inventory amounts in dollars and cents to a total of $538,260.72 and includes maintcnance equipment of all kind>; road and bridge construction machinery and equipment; motor equip- ment ,uch as automobiles, tractors, trucks, etc.; machinery ancl equip- ment at our Oglesby, Ga. quarry (in the 4th, Division); and any other property actually in use and necessary to the carrying on of our work. The above inventor does not cover any of the new equipment purchas- ed ior 1923; neither does it include real estate, building,;, property in storag( at our \Yarehouse and shops, nor, does it covcr motor equip- ment released by us to the various counties for usc in road work.

Division . Bituminous Macadam Roadway located near Rome, Ga. Length 7.3 Mile . 72 ROAD CONSTRUCTION During the year 1922 there were completed and accepted a total of 41 projects practically all of which were carried over from the previous year, the total mileage of oads being 276.33 miles and the cost aggr.egating $2,625,086.72. On January 1st, 1922, there were under construction, 65 projects with a total mileage of 474.97 miles. On January 1st, 1923, there were under construction 113 projects with a total mileage of 755.18 miles or an additional mileage over that of January 1, 1922, of 280.21 miles. The total mileage of road's and bridges completed and under construction as of January I, 1923, amounts to 1806.94 miles with a total estimated cost of $24,199,613.46, with Federal Aid participating in the amount of $9,870,706.41. For the year 1923, Federal Aid Allotments have been made and County funds pledged to place under construction a total of 568.08 miles of new construction involving a total estimated cost of $5,365,896.49. The total value of work completed, under construction and contemplated for the next year amounts to $29.565,509.95, and a total mileage of 2377.46 mile. As the department was not assured of additional Federal Aid appropriations until after the passage of the Act approved November 9th, 1921, and the subsequent issuance of new rules and regulations to conform to the requirements of the new Act, it was not until spring that the necessary surveys and plans were made for new work. The new requirements of the Federal Law with regard to placing the County funds under the direct control of the State Highway Department, also tended to handicap some of the smalled and weaker counties financially, but except in a few isolated cases, the counties through close co-operation with, cthe department were able to meet the Federal requirement. On accotin.t of the late start in preparing plans and surveys and submitting projects to the Federal Government, the bulk of new contracts were not let until the summer and fall of the year 1922, however, the prices bid \vere unusually low and the State and Counties were able to put under construction a much greater mileage than was anticipated with the funds at hand, Due to steadily increasing cost of all materials and the scarcity of labor, the cost of work for the ensuing year will undoubtedly increase. In fact the contracts being let at this time are considerably higher than those let 3 months past. Under the present arrangement where the state has no funds to match the Federal Funds for construction, the funds being supplied by the various counties as their finances will permit, it is not possible to map out in advance any definite program for making plans. and surveys. When a Federal appropriation becomes available, and allotments are made to the counties, it is necessary to hastily recruit a force of engineers and draftsmen to prepare the plans and surveys, which, when c~mpleted, necessitates the release of the greater number of the men. The same thing applies to engineers suprvising construction work. It is blieved that a material saving in engineering experience could be 73 effected and more uniform res ults obtained if th ere we re uff: _:cnt state funds ava ilable to permit the depa rtment to plan in advance the work to be done from year to year in order that a stable, efficient . organization might be employed for twelve months in the year, rather than recruiting practically a new field organization each yea r. On account of the uncertainty of the length of employment, the department at this time is having conside rabl e difficulty in securin g and keeping engineers needed on surveys and construction of Federal Aid Project . The .department is continuing its policy of grading the road , constructing drainage structures and surfacing the projects with local top soil or sand cl.i!Y and gravel and allowing the road bed to se ttle, thu s detecting any weak spots which may develop before placing the permanent pavement. There are a numb er of projects in the stat e which have been so constructed and the local sand clay or gravel has been used as a wearing surface and the additional funds have become available, th ese projects are being re- surfaced with pavement. The department i continuing its policy of eliminating wh ere ver possible even at a con siderable expense, railroad g rad e crossings by relocation or overhead crossing or unde rpass. Frequent conferences have been held wi th th e va rious roalroad officials in an endeavor to ecure th eir co-operation and assistance in grade crossing elimination. .\Ve have met with varying success; in some instances th e railroads l1ave very willingly co-operated and in others, have bee n very reluctan~ in taking part in the cost of elimination of grade cro sings.

The State Highway Department during 1922 has conducted many of its tests of road materials through its own laboratory, and has instituted cooperation with the Bureau of Public Roads important research vestigations on the life and economic efficiency of the sand-clay, top soil, and gravel roads already built with Federal Aid. The routine tests of materials for current construction has assumed large proportions requiring the full time of an assistant in the laboratory. The samples analyzed in 1922 number 812 and the anticipated needs during the coming year will be much greater. The samples have '1nsisted mainly of material intended for sand-clay types of road surlacing. The current activity of the department is mainly concerned with this class of roads and thorough tests of available material along all of the new projects are made. This work has direct importance in selection of the best approved material existing within short hauls of the places where it will he used. The State Highway Department ;, securing these tests at minimum costs under the present arrangements. The tests on cement. concrete sand, and gravel are cared for as they arise. The department pays the salary of its own employee and a small annual sum for chemicals, use of laboratory, and replacement of apparatus. On July 1, 1922 the State Highway Department entered into a cooperative research agreement with the Bureau of Public Roads whereby a comprehensive investigation of the traffic behaviour and efficiency of the recently built sand-day top soil and gravel roads in Georgia may be determined. The parties thereto share the cost in equal amounts. A list of completed Federal Aid road propects whose construction cost is known was selected to the number of 29 located so as to cover all portions of the state and representing a wide range of the materials as sed. The program outlined is as. follows: 1. Traffic counts are being systematically kept on the selected procts to cover eight days in each month, two days being used in each ~ek. In one month the record covers 1\\o Sundays, one Monday, one cesday, one W cdnesday, one Thursday, one Friday and one Saturday. ;eparate count is made of trucks, passenger cars, and horse drawn hides. 2. The cost of maintenance on these roads is carefully kept and ;eparates the cost of maintaining ditches, shoulders, and traveled road 1>ed. 3. The laboratory has been called on to take samples at characteristic points along the projects, to analyze the material, and to keep full notes of existing conditions taking photos to supplement these notes. Two field inspecitons are planned each year, one in the early spring and her in the late summer. Samples will be taken annually and . to detect changes in the quality of the material if they occur, ter notes relative to changes of thickness, drainage, etc. as bear- up the service and life of these roads. This investigation if contill_, d to the point when resurfacing of the roads becomes necessary 103 will furnish the financial and other data most valuable in deciding upon a wise choice of material for such construction. During 1922 this program has been successfully begun and it will be continued during 1923. The data already accumulated is highly instructive and important. In addition to the economic phases of this research work. opportunitv is provided to make further scientific studies and tests on the sand, sil~. and clay which enter into these road soils and to devise further criteria by which to select the best of such materials for a given piece of road. This \York at present is proc.eeding under the direction of Dr. C. M. Strahan at Athens. The laboratory equipment has been enlarged and special apparatus devised suitable for the work. Mr. Tom M. N eibling serves as Research Engineer and Mr. J. B. ~loon is employed as assistant. The Federal Aid projects under reo;earch study are: 1'\o.

Upon the reimbursement by the State of the amount expended by the Federal Government for such maintenance, said amount shall be paid into the Federal highway fund for reapportionment among all the States for the construction of roads under this Act, and the Secretary of Agriculture shall then approve further projects submitted by the State as in this Act provided. Whenever it shall become necessary for the Secretary of Agriculture under the provisions of this Act to place any highway in a proper condition of maintenance the the Secretary of Agriculture shall contract with some responsible party or parties for doing such work: Provded, however, That in case he is not able to secure a satisfactory contract he may purchase, lease, hire, or otherwise obtain all necessary supplies, equip- 126 ment, and labor, and may operate and maintain such motor and other equipment and facilities as in his judgment are necessary for the proper and efficient performance of his functions. Sec. 15. That within two years after this Act takes effect the Secretary of Agriculture shall prepare, publish, a)ld distribute a map showing the highways and forest roads that have been selected and approved as a part of the primary or interstate, and the secondary or intercounty systems, and at least annually thereafter shall publish supplementary maps showing his program and the progress made in selection, construction, and reconstruction. Sec. 16. That for the purpose of this Act the consent of the United States is hereby given to any railroad or canal company to convey to the highway department of any State any part of its right of way or other property in that State acquired by grant from the United States. Sec. 17. That if the Secretary of Agriculture determines that any part of the public lands or reservations of the United States is reasonably necessary for the right of way of any highway or forest road or as a source of materials for the construction or maintenance of any such highway or forest road adjacent to such lands or reservations, the Secretary of Agriculture shall file with the Secretary of the department supervising the administration of such land or reservation a map showing the portion of such lands or reservations which it is desired to appropriate. If within a period of four months after such filing the said Secretary shall not have certified to the Secretary of Agriculture that the proposed appropriation of such land or material is contrary to the public interest or inconsistent with the purposes for which such land or materials have been reserved, or shall have agreed to the appropriation and transfer under conditions which he deems necessary for the adequate protection and utilization of the reserve, then such land and materials may be appropriated and transferred to the State highway department for such purposes and subject to the conditions so specified. If at any tme the need for any such lands or materials for such purposes shall no longer exist, notice of the fact shall be given by the State highway department to the Secretary of Agriculture, and such lands or materials shall immediately revert to the control of the Secretary of the department from which they had been appropriated. Sec. 18.
