F. SCHLESINGER, Director The State Highway Department of Ohio was created in 1904 when $10,000.00 was appropriated for state aid to road construction. The Department under this Act was given some advisory jurisdiction in the matter of road building but no administrative control. In 1911 the General Assembly passed an Act changing the State Highway Department from an educational to an administrative and construction department and au- thorized the designation of an inter-county highway sys- tem of state roads to be built and maintained under the authority of the state. In 1912 an amendment to the Con- stitution providing for a bond issue to finance state aid road construction was submitted to the people for vote and defeated. Following this defeat the 1913 Legislature provided for a levy of one-half mill on the general property of the state to provide funds for the state’s share of construction on the inter-county highway system. This was the begin- ning of the system of financing state aid roads in Ohio which obtained up to within a few years ago. The financing of state roads is a matter of agreement and cooperation financially between the state and counties. Until 1923 the state’s share was derived from a levy, as stated above, but at that time the legislature repealed the road levy and appropriated an equivalent amount from the State Treasury. A direct appropriation from the State Treasury was also made at the last session of the legislature although the amount was reduced to $7,000,000 for the biennium (July 1, 1925-June 30, 1927) in compari- son with $9,200,000 previously appropriated for the two year period ending June 30, 1925. In addition to these funds the state since 1916 has re- ceived Federal Aid which last year amounted to about $2,700,000. The Federal funds are used similarly to the state funds in cooperation with county funds. The basis of cooperation between the county and state can vary ac- cording to the tax duplicate of the county but:on the aver- age is about 50-50. The State is obligated to maintain the roads after they are built under the supervision of the state with state aid. The County’s share of the cost of state and Federal Aid projects is derived either from a bond issue by the county or by a tax levy. The Township in which the road is located and the property owners within the benefited area share in the county’s portion of the cost. At the present time the property owners assessment can vary from a minimum of five percent to a maximum of fifteen percent of the total cost exclusive of bridges and culverts. This can be spread over an area as great as one and one- half miles each side of the road at the discretion of the County Commissioners. One-fourth of the state appropriation must be spent on what is known as the Main Market system and three- fourths is divided equally among all the counties and can be expended on any part of the inter-county highway system within the counties. The Main Market system of highways contains a total mileage of 3,500 and in general includes the main roads from a traffic standpoint on the system. Main Market funds can be assigned anywhere on the Main Market system at the discretion of the Direc- FOLLOW THE ROUTE NUMBERS tor of Highways. The Federal Aid funds must be ex- pended upon the part of the state system that has been approved by the Federal Government as Federal Aid roads which is seven percent of the total mileage of roads in the state of Ohio, amounting to about 5,700 miles. Maintenance and Repair funds are at present derived as follows: 50% of the motor vehicle license fees and the commercial bus and truck fees and 45% of the gas tax are assigned to the State Highway Department for main- tenance and reconstruction purposes. The increase to the state due to the gas tax bill is not very material due to the fact that the license fees were reduced about 50 percent and that the state receives only 45% of the gasoline tax. The estimated income to the state for the two year period July 1, 1925 to July 1, 1927 from license, gas tax and bus truck fees is about $22,000,000. The Brown Gas Tax Bill also provides that the state shall spend $2,500,000 in the biennium on maintaining the unpaved sections of the system. Ohio at the present time has about 6,200 miles of paved roads on the state system which is limited by law to eleven thousand miles. In addition to this there are about 1,700 miles of traffic bound roads which are constructed of gravel, stone or slag and are being maintained by the state. There will be completed or under construction by July 1, 1927 about 7,000 miles of paved roads and about 3,000 miles of traffic bound type of road which will make about 10,000 miles of paved and traffic bound road under state maintenance on the state system. The total length of the inter-county highways or state roads is limited by law to 11,000 miles. .The progress that has been made in recent years in spite of decreased appropriations is shown by the fact that in 1922 the maintenance and repair budget called for the maintenance of 43800 miles of road ene the 1926 budget provides for the maintenance of 9,500 miles. There has been considerable discussion of the method of financing road construction in Ohio but the facts are that Ohio, next to New York, has the greatest mileage of improved state roads in the United States, and the state has no bonded indebtedness for the same. Ohio’s income from motor vehicles is not mortgaged in the fu- ture, and the counties and municipalities share in the motor vehicle taxes. The average life of what county road bonds are outstanding would not be more than about five years as the total life is limited to ten years. It is the opinion of many that the system of financing roads in Ohio is as equitable as any that has been devised and comes nearer to distributing the cost according to bene- fits than does the state bond issue plan. The three ele- ments that benefit by road improvement and maintenance —the public at large, the benefited district contiguous to the improvement, and the motorists who use the road — all share in the cost under the Ohio system. Ohio is one of few states where the employes of the Highway Department, with the exception of the executive heads, are under civil service regulations and not subject to political changes. Many of the personnel have been in the service continuously since the time when the de- partment was first organized. The cooperative system of financing also tends to eliminate political considerations on the part of both the county and state officials. Last year the state spent about $9,000,000 for main- tenance, repair and reconstruction which is much less than was spent in many of the states with about the same mile- age of roads to maintain, FOLLOW THE ROUTE NUMBERS One of the big problems of the future will be the widen- ing and reconstruction of a number of roads on the sys- tem. Ohio constructed many miles of road before the advent of the motor truck as a factor in highway traffic and the fact that these roads are too light and narrow in design is not the fault of the engineers who planned them as they could not foresee the great increase in character and volume of traffic any more than could the manufac- turers and users of motor vehicles. The Department of Highways of Ohio in cooperation with the Federal Bureau of Public Roads has just com- pleted a comprehensive transport survey of the state sys- tem which lasted a year. This is the most complete sur- vey of this kind ever made and included not only a traffic count but the collecting of such information as the origin and destination of traffic, weight of vehicles and loads, and character of commodities transported. The report will be published about January 1st and will be very valuable in planning future construction and particularly in the reconstruction and widening of roads already built. The Division of Highways considers that its function includes the serving of motor traffic in ways other than in the construction and maintenance of roads important as are these functions. Ohio has taken the lead in the proper marking of the state routes in regard to numbering and the erection of warning signs to provide for the safety of traffic. Detour information in the form of bulletins is issued throughout the construction season. Detours are well marked and maintained in passable condition at all times with an idea that the motor traveling public should be incon- venienced as little as possible. A number of the other states have visited Ohio recently to inspect its road mark- ing system and sign production methods and much favor- able comment generally has been received by the Depart- ment on this phase of its work. OHIO’S ROAD MARKING SYSTEM Ohio is nationally recognized as having the best marked system of highways in the United States. For the con- venience and safety of the motorist the Division of High- ways has marked the roads of the State Highway system with a complete system of markers and warning signs as well as direction signs and general information signs. The road marking system of Ohio, it is believed, is the simplest and most effective possible. By making proper use of this system of marking it is possible to travel to any point in the state on the State Routes without asking for directions and with the maximum of safety. STATE ROUTES Under the system adopted in Ohio all roads of the state highway system have been designated as State Routes and each State Route has been given a number. In order to make use of the system all that is necessary is to select the route to be followed, and then follow the number of the route on the road itself. The numbers of the State Routes and the cities and towns through which they pass may be determined by reference to the official State Route map or to the list in this booklet. STATE ROUTE MARKING All State Routes are marked by pressed metal route markers erected on steel posts along the road. The mark- FOLLOW THE ROUTE NUMBERS ers are made in the shape of the outline of the State of Ohio and bear the number of the route in prominent numerals. All State Route markers are painted a lemon yellow with black numerals and letters. The markers are placed about a mile apart in the coun- try and are alternated from one side of the road to the other so as to face traffic in either direction. In other words, the motorist need look only on the right side of the road for the markers regardless of the direction in which he is traveling. In so far as possible they are placed just beyond the road intersections. A change in direction of a State Route at an intersec- tion is marked by a marker placed 200 feet in advance of the turn with a circular plate bearing a large letter R or L immediately beneath it, indicating whether the turn is to the right or to the left. After the turn is made another marker is erected to confirm the change in direc- tion. Intersections of State Routes are marked by special Cross Road or Side Road signs erected on each route about 300 feet in advance of the intersection giving the number of the intersecting route. All State Routes are marked through the cities and towns as well as in the country. In cities and towns the markers are placed on telephone poles, trolley poles or light standards wherever possible. The poles on which the markers are placed are further distinguished by wide yellow bands painted on the poles above and below the markers. The same system of indicating turns is followed in the cities and towns as is used in the country. In addi- tion to the R or L used in advance of turns, markers are erected immediately at the turns with arrows pointing in the proper direction beneath the markers. DETOUR MARKING Where roads are closed for construction and detours are necessary, standard detour signs are erected at every point on the detour where there is any chance of confusion. The detour signs are a bright yellow with black letters and are large enough to be plainly seen at all times. Each detour sign bears the name of the next town ahead and also the number of the State Route. Detours are marked even more carefully than the main roads. SAFETY MEASURES Warning All points of hazard on the State Routes are Signs marked by a system of standard warning signs which are distinctive and readily under- stood. In this system the degree of caution required is indicated by the shape of the sign as well as by wording and symbols. There are four shapes used in this system of signs. These shapes and their uses are a follows: 1. Circular — indicating Railroad Crossing. 2. Octagon — indicating “Stop”. 3. Diamond Shaped — indicating “Slow”. 4. Square — indicating “Caution”. These signs are all yellow with black letters. The Circular or Railroad sign is used only at grade crossings. Wherever this sign is seen, extreme caution should be exercised. One horizontal bar on this sign in- dicates a single track; two horizontal bars indicate two or more tracks. ——— ee arTErtnIn nnn nnn EnSRIEISSEnE ERROR FOLLOW THE ROUTE NUMBERS The Octagon or “Stop” sign is used to indicate a danger requiring a positive stop. This sign is used principally on secondary roads at their junctions with heavily trav- eled main roads, The Diamond shaped signs are used to warn of hazards calling for reduction of speed because of a hazard in. or on the road itself. These signs are used at curves, sharp turns, steep grades, narrow bridges, etc. The Square signs are used to direct attention to a pos- sible danger arising from a condition outside the road itself such as at schools, cross roads or side roads. All warning signs are erected about 350 feet in advance of the point of hazard. All these signs are lettered to indicate the exact kind of hazard. However if the driver will keep in mind the meaning of the different shapes and govern himself ac- cordingly he will not need to read the signs. It should be remembered that a Circular sign always means a Rail- way crossing; an Octagon sign always means STOP; a Diamond shaped sign means “Reduce Speed” and a Square sign means to be on the alert. Crosses In addition to the warning signs small white crosses have been placed at points where fatal accidents have occurred. These do not merely mark points of hazard but serve as silent reminders to the driver to drive with care and with due regard for the rights of others. Pavement Solid White center lines are painted on the Marking pavement on curves, over hills, and at ap- proaches to railroad crossings. A solid line in the center of the pavement is a positive warning to stay on the right side of the road until the line is passed. Solid center lines mark the points where it is not safe to attempt to pass a car ahead. Keep to the right of the solid white line. A dashed or broken center line is used on the straight- aways on some of the most heavily traveled State Routes. The purpose of the dashed line is to add to the general safety by defining the portion of the pavement to be used by traffic in each direction. A broken line is used on straight-aways instead of a white line for the reason that the solid line is used only to mark curves, hills, ete. Approaches to railroad grade crossings are marked by a series of four transverse white bands on the pavement in addition to the center-line. These bands are each two feet in width and are parallel to the tracks. The first of these bands is 375 feet from the track and the last is 25 feet from the nearest rail. The letters R R are also printed on the pavement between the two bands farthest from the track. Whitewashing On all main traveled roads, the telephone Telephone poles and all obstructions close to the Poles traveled roadway are painted white. This outlines the road and adds greatly to the general safety, especially at night. Flashing On the most heavily traveled State Routes Beacons. flashing beacons or lighthouses have been erected in advance of the points of greatest hazard such as railroad crossings, sharp turns, etc. These signals are gas-operated beacons: of the marine type. They are particularly effective as night signals, FOLLOW THE ROUTE NUMBERS Several hundred red reflectors of the most effective type have also been erected for night signals at points of more than ordinary hazard, such as sharp turns, etc., where there are no lighthouses. INFORMATION SIGNS In addition to the State Route markers and the stand- ard warning signs, various signs conveying general in- formation have been erected. Signs are erected at the entrances to every city or village on State Routes indicat- ing the name of the place being entered. All county lines are marked by standard signs. Small signs indicate the names of streams. Signs are also erected at intervals stating legal speed limits. All signs conveying general information are white with black letters. This color scheme distinguishes the signs in this classification from the Warning signs which are all yellow with black letters. UNITED STATES HIGHWAYS At the request of the American Association of State Highway Officials a board known as the Joint Board on Interstate Highways was appointed by the U. S. Secretary of Agriculture in 1925 to select a system of through inter- state routes and to devise a uniform scheme for desig- nating such routes. The routes designated by the Joint Board are officially known as United States Highways. The routes selected are trans-continental or inter-state routes of major importance and are of national signifi- cance. The United States Highways have been designated by numbers. The number of any given United States High- way will be carried continuously throughout its length. Routes of a general east and west direction have been given even numbers and north and south roads have been designated by odd numbers. The standard United States Highway marker is a typical United States shield with black letters and figures on a white background. Smaller shields with the letters R and L will be used to indicate turns to the right or left. The marking of the United States High- ways in Ohio will occasion a number of changes in the present route numbering sys- tem. These changes will be made late in 1926 or early in 1927 when the United States Highway markers will be erected. The United States Highway numbers will super- sede the present State Route numbers on the routes which have been designed as United States Highways. Reflectors. UNITED STATES HIGHWAYS IN OHIO U. S.
