"Where the old story had its rise in the faulty observationâ€" of some exâ€" plorer who thought the crouching ostâ€" rich had covered his head, we may nevert know. We know now that it is a fable with which we must part rather regretfully, since it affords apt _ Careful engineering studies have {revealed that for mixed slow and fast : moving traffic a twoâ€"lane roadway can at best carry 1,500 vehicles per hour in each direction. When the pxk traf~ \fic tends to exceed this amount, as { indicated by traffic surveys and the ‘tendency of motorists to use longer ‘and rougher parallel routes, then it is high time to double the pavement , width, for the sake of economy, comâ€" fort and safety. | _ Highways of the present and future | are being designed, not only with the |daily traffic in mind, but the equally important traffic volume when the ‘public has its feisure moments over the weekâ€"end, on holidays and eveâ€" | nings during the week. At times some of the wide highways in servâ€" ice look practically deserted, yet twice daily they bear tremendous burdens frightened, must be blown up," deâ€" clares Dr. .W. Reid Blair, director of the New York Zoological Park, writâ€" ing in The American Magazine. "As a matter of fact," he continues, "the ostrich, when aware of danger but thinks he has not yet been perceived, acts much like a hen or quail under "It is almost a shame, when the term is applicable to so many huâ€" mans, that the fable that an ostrich _Traffic congestion on rural roads is not hopeless. The automobile simâ€" ply got the jump on highway builders and the public. Yet from Los Angeles to Boston, may be found every eviâ€" dence that the highway is gaining, slowly perhaps, butSgurely. Hundreds of miles of 40â€"foot highways are beâ€" ing built or planned. SAYS OSTRICH DOES NOT HIDE ITs HEAD Old Story Explodedâ€"by Director "I notice that there is a movement on for noiscless housckeeping," wrote a correspondent to Woman‘s Home Companion. "What is so pleasant as a singing teakettle?" â€" Woman‘s in large communties, such as Deâ€" troit, whose ordinary highway would be a suger-high\ny almost any place else, New York and Chicago, roadâ€" ways even wider than four lanes are an absolute necessity. and Saturday and Sunday the swish, swish of spinning wheels is endless. One of the tragedies of life is that no one ever gives us a dinner until thoroughfare. The capacity of the Boston Post Road was trebled when changed from a twoâ€"lane to a fourâ€" lane road, traffic counts revealed. When travel is confined to one lane in each direction, one loveâ€"lorn driver or one truck may determine the speed at which a hundred motorists may drive. Two travel lanes in each direcâ€" tion permit of a slow lene and a fast lane, or in any case, the slow dxz:r may be passed with little or no â€" ger from traffic ‘coming from the opâ€" posite direction. What Study Reveals This belief is wrong. Obviously a highway accomodating four lanes of automobiles will carry at least twice as much traffic as a twoâ€"lane highway. Traffic surveys have revealed that weekâ€"end and holiday car travel on the average road is usually no more than two or three times the volume of every day traffic. By the simple exâ€" pedient of widening the narrow road to twice or thrice its original width congestion llâ€"'l!_ht lmuph:h.d. capable oi,mm‘ murchvmorer-â€""â€"'th.; double the capacity of a twoâ€"lane Providing plenty of space for autoâ€" mobiles on country roads near cities is not a hopeless task.
