Bates and Traffic Control Aids Railways of South Australia Two-Year Test Indicates Some Lines Must Give Way to Buses Adelaide, B. Aust.--An experiment has been tried during the past two years throughout South Australia consisting of the Government con- trol ot road tramc. in 1930 a trans- port control board was appointed by Parliament tor three years and the legislation will expire in about six months. Upon the board was conferred wide powers tor the regulation of road traffic as the effect of motor competition was being felt seriously by the railways, particularly as many of the main roads have been built almost parallel with the lines. Large losses were being sustained by the railways department and it became a question whether some of the routes would not have to be closed. So the experiment of rigid. 1y controlling the road trattie was in. stituted. It has been conducted sufficiently long to glve a thorough test but the board, in its annual re- port just issued, points out that it is . . AL- gt-aes, pvu Jul-III “an.-.” W'" -V dimcult even to estimate the tinaueltt1 eitect of the operations on the rail- ways as the revenue statements do not actually reveal the position. Idea of Diver-Ion The board explains, however, that some idea of the extent of the di. version ot the trattle to the railways may be formed by a consideration of the total annual mileage of dir continued services. This aggregates approximately 2,479,958 miles, made up ot 937,742 miles tor passenger ser- vices, and 1,542,216 miles tor goods transport. The board calculates that T at least £100,000 , year has been added to the revenue of the railways fl department by the control, or elimi. i' nation, of road trattle. A To get a reliable idea ot the effect "r' ot road control the board sent to 18 station-masters throughout South Aus- ralia the question, "what has been the general effect ot the Road and Railway Transport Act on railway trattle?" he replies showed that the percentages ot increase range from s 25 to 300. in some instances the ‘. revenue has been doubled, in one l case it has been quadrupled. and in l ‘many instances it is reported that i the railways now handle the whole I of the local district trade. I What Roads to Close ' The board will now devote itself [ to considering what unprofitable road traffic substituted. The de- ‘ ciding point will be what course is best in the economic interest of the State, with some relation, of course, to ther reasonable needs of the dis- trict. The question of profit cannot be the deciding factor in all the rail- ways of South Australia. Many ot them are purely develop- ' mental lines and are essential to the progress of the agricultural and pastoral industries. Some ot them . can never pay directly as they traw ' erse long distances of empty coun- : try and there is still a demand tor ', further facilities in areas that are opening up. With South Australia's . industries being wool and wheat no- I thing will be done to hamper their expansion. In fact, the Transport ', Board so tar departed from its policy of road trame control last season as to institute the experiment of allow-j - ing motor lorries to convey wheat " trom railway siding: and farms to the shipping ports so that there should it be no cessation in exports. e The board now controls 49 routes I representing 1669 miles, and has s paid £17,256 In compensation.

Men were driving cattle through the gates of York.
