Excerpt from Fourth Annual Report of the Massachusetts Highway Commission: January, 1897 The appropriation by which the work of the Highway Commission was to be carried on during the season of 1896 did not become available until nearly three months of that season had passed. The act by which this appropriation was made (chapter 481, Acts of 1896) was approved on June 4, and the amount of the appropriation was $600,000. After a careful consideration of the conditions, it was deemed wise not to undertake any absolutely new constructions, but rather to press forward the extension of those already begun. With one or two minor exceptions, for which there were excellent reasons, this determination has been adhered to. As soon as possible after the appropriation was available allotments were made to the several constructions under way, the necessary surveys and estimates were completed as rapidly as possible, and contracts were entered into for the execution of the work. In addition to the lay-out of previous years, 195,481 feet were laid out during the year 1896, bringing the total length up to 665,937 feet, or 126.17 miles. The loss of three months of the best part of the road-making season by delay in the appropriation necessarily resulted in a diminished construction. Notwithstanding the exceptionally favorable weather during the month of November, extending even into the first week of December, the season of actual road building was comparatively short.

Excerpt from Twelfth Annual Report of the Massachusetts Highway Commission: January, 1905 The law of 1900 requires a payment to the Commonwealth by each municipality in which State roads are built of the cost of maintenance of such roads, but not exceeding $50 for each mile of State road in the respective municipalities. The total cost of repairs was in 1904; there will be paid back into the State treasury the sum of or about per cent. Of the total cost. In certain parts of the State the maintenance of State roads is more economically and better done by contract than by day work. This is because of a local demand for labor which makes it practically impossible to get men or horses to work on the road during parts of the year when repairs are most needed. The method of continuous repairs has been pursued during the present year, the intention of the commission being to have all parts of State roads in good condition at all times. Nine contracts for maintenance are now in operation, cover ing miles of road. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
