Archer** Racial and economic segregation in urban communities is often understood as a natural consequence of poor choices by individuals. In reality, racially and economically segregated cities are the result of many factors, * “White men’s roads through black men’s homes” was the mantra of a coalition led by Reginald M. Booker and Sammie Abbott in opposition to highway development in Washington, D.C.

  • History of the Interstate System in Indiana: Volume 1
    SCHOOL OF CIVIL ENGINEERING JOINT HIGHWAY RESEARCH PROJECT JHRP-75-26 HISTORY OF THE INTERSTATE SYSTEM IN INDIANA - VOLUME I DEVELOPMENT OF THE NATIONAL PROGRAM David A. Ripple PURDUE UNIVERSITY INDIANA STATE HIGHWAY COMMISSION Final Report HISTORY OF THE INTERSTATE SYSTEM IN INDIANA TO: J. F. McLaughlin, Director December 1, 1975 Joint Highway Research Project Project: C-36-64H FROM: II. L. Michael, Associate Director Joint Highway Research Project File: 3-5-8 Attached is the Final Report titled "History of the Interstate System in Indiana", authored by David A. Ripple a Graduate Instructor on our staff while conducting the research and authoring the Report. Professor W. L. Grecco, formerly of our staff, directed the study during its initial year and Professor Michael supervised it during the latter years and handled the lengthy review process. The Report has been re- viewed by several personnel of the ISHC, including Mr. Walter Frick, and changes suggested by them have generally been made and are sincerely appreciated. The History covers the period from the late 1930 's through 1972. The Interstate System was not yet complete in 1972 and the period after 1972 is not reported herein. Perhaps it will be at a later date after the System is completed. The Report is voluminous and therefore is issued in four (4) volumes as follows: Volume I - Development of the National Program (Chapters I thru IV) Volume II - Evolution of Policies and Standards (Chapter V) Volume III - Route History (Chapter VI) Volume IV - Cost, Funding and General Benefits (Chapters VII and VIII) Another volume as an Appendix which is a detailed Table titled "Interstate Highway Construction Record" is also in preparation and will be issued at a later date.

  • Toll Facilities in the United States: Bridges
    TOLL FACILITIES IN THE UNITED STATES Bridges - Roads - Tunnels - Ferries July 2011 Publication No: FHWA-PL-11-032 Internet: http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ohim/tollpage.htm Data Explanation This report contains selected information on toll facilities in the United States that has been provided to FHWA by the States and/or various toll authorities. The information is based on a survey of facilities in operation, financed, or under construction as of January 1, 2011. Differences and inconsistencies from previous editions may be due to corrections of known errors or the introduction of new ones, or a combination of both. Known reported ambiguities of rural/urban and functional system designations are assumed as urban in this report. Tables T-1 and T-2 include, where known: -- The direction of toll collection. -- The type of electronic toll collection system, if available. -- Whether the facility is part of the National Highway System (NHS). -- Various financial and fee information. Table T-1 contains information such as the name, financing or operating authority, location and termini, feature crossed, length, and road system for toll roads, bridges, tunnels, and ferries that connect highways. -- Parts 1 and 3 include the Interstate System route numbers for toll facilities located on the Dwight D. Eisenhower National System of Interstate and Defense Highways. -- Parts 2 and 4 include a functional system identification code for non-Interstate System toll bridges, roads, and tunnels. -- Part 5 includes vehicular toll ferries. Table T-2 contains a list of those projects under serious consideration as toll facilities, awaiting completion of financing arrangements, or proposed as new toll facilities that are being studied for financial and operational feasibility.
