Highway Travel
Hits Ail-time High
If Oregon’s roads
seemed
slightly crowded last
year,
small wonder.
An all-time travel high was
scored in the
state during
1955 when more than seven
billion m :les were tallied
on
streets and highways.
The figure, according to Sec­
retary of State Earl T. New-
bry, represents an increase of
m o/e than 292 million miles
over 1954.
Highest travel month, which
came as no surprise, was Aug­
ust when 731,349,872
miles
were traveled. Next highest,
each with more than 600 mil­
lion miles driven, were
the
vacation months of June, July
and September.
Travel in the
state
has
shown a continuing increase
in every year
except
1953
since World War II
ended.
Mileage has leaped from the
not- quite three billion miles
driven in 1945 to the
7,044,-
,592,307 miles of last year.
Mileage is figured from re­
ports showing the volume of
gasoline diesel and other m o­
tor fuel sales.
