ROAD AUTHORITIES EXPLAINJELAYS Bridges Take' Longer Than Highways to Plan, Delay in bridge building on State highways where the pavement is completed was said today by highway commission officials to be caused by the fact that plans and specifications for bridges required a longer time for preparation than the road itself. The situation is said to. have existed from the beginning of the commission's operation when the National Road was taken over.. Road specifications follow a standard, practically, while bridges have to be designed for the particular location. The maintenance department is building run-arounds where it- is possible and where taxpayers demand it. although it costs from S2OO to SI,OOO for each. Detours cost the State nothing.
