This is 400 billion more than in 1955. “Twenty-one per cent of that travel will be on the new inter state highway system and 79 per cent on remaining highways and streets,” Keese said. “The utmost in engineering skills will be de manded to make full utilization of existing and new facilities. A panel with Keese as modera tor was set up for a discussion on the integration of highway routes in the city street pattern.
