$220,000,000 Expected From New Act For Southland Roads in Five Years
Approximately $220,000,000 will be available to southern California during the next five years for state highway construction and rights of way under provisions of the new highway act adopted last week by the state legislature, according to Edward R. Valentine, regional vice president of the California State Chamber of Commerce.
New highway-user tax schedules are anticipated to yield seventy-five to eighty million dollars per year for highway construction purposes. Southern California's share will be three times more than heretofore available.
"Adequate funds," he stated, "should permit early acquirement of necessary rights of way, access rights and development of modern freeway standards on many of southern California's major arterials which will materially lessen traffic congestion, fatal and injury accidents and loss of time and operating expense."
The new highway legislation provides that 55 percent of all state-collected highway money shall be spent in the south. Of this sum, expected to amount to $220,000,000 in five years, 50 percent or $110,000,000 will be expended on state highways in southern California at the discretion of the State Highway Commission. The other 50 percent or $110,000,000 is a minimum which must be spent on state highways in each county during the first five year period in accordance with the formula established in the legislation.
Under the formula Orange county's share will be $8,925,400, second among 13 southern California counties.
