Freeway" Legislation
Held Oregon Need
The new type of highway, known
as "freeway," already adopted in
more advanced states and in Europe,
should be made possible in Oregon
by legislation as the most important
means of meeting the constantly
mounting death toll from motor ac
cidents, it is declared in a report,
"Freeways for Oregon," just issued
by the Oregon State Planning board.
The report, which goes into detail
on the present condition of highway
traffic in Oregon, was prepared by
the advisory committee on roadside
protection, of which John B. Yeon,
Portland, is chairman.
New highways have been built and
old ones rebuilt in Oregon at great
public expense to provide safe trans
portation arteries to meet the con
stantly changing and increasing de
mands of traffic, yet the hazards of
travel remain, the report declares.
The "freeway," suggested for Ore
gon is literally a free right of way.
Along a freeway there are no in
tersections with other roads except
for Oregon by legislation, highway
those provided by the public road
building agency. Under the present
system the owners of abutting prop
erty have right of access to or egress
from the thoroughfare. Along a free
way access is considered only at the
provided junctions. The designation
of freeways in Oregon should be
limited to those routes intended for
heavy arterial use, the report makes
clear.
Until freeways are made possible
authorities believe, the state will be
forced to continue to spend vast
sums on the construction of highways
which are known to be obsolete
while they are still being planned.
The continued construction of roads,
proved hazardous by past experi
ences, will increase the already ap
palling death list on the present
highways.
