THE OCEAN BOULEVARD, * GOVERNOR FORTS PK0P0SIT10N J 87* Riles of Road te be Rah ' taiaed by State if Legidatlie ' agrees te Preposit'wi j " AJl the New Jersey Coast Resorts c should be linked together by a single j road system and all the inland towns j. of thr state from county aeit to county _ seat ; from Newton in Sussex to Cape May "ourt House in Oape May, should { be' equally united together by a con- g rinuous highway." — John Franklin Fort, Governor of New Jersey. ^ Thus in a nutshell the chief ex ecu- t tive sets forth the intent of the proposed project— to give this ata'e the f finest roads and drives in America, ad- t ding to the wealth and comfort of its 1 permanent population and making it ^ the Mecca of pleasure seekers. 1 It ia suggested to take over, by the v stare a line of highways running through the various counties an i no1 ni ci pal i ties adjacent >o the oc- an, to s be called the "Ocean Boulevard." £ From Atlantic Highands, the ixtretng. ^ 1 northern section of the route, to Cape . : May, the extreme southern section, is I - about 127 miles. Most of this route is ' already improved. Comparatively lit- t 1 tie remains to be .done, in fact leas ( than 26 miles. It ia also suggested that a connect j ; ing line of highways be turned over to j ■ the state, from county seat to county : seat, throughout the whole state. The . figures prepared by the [state road de- I part&ent show that all these county townsman be connected by 746 miles of roads — of which distance only 169 miles } are at this time unimproved. ( The 746 miles of , inland highwava 1 f i and the approximate 125 miles of the j j ocean way wouid place upon the state, j t ■ if taken over, the care and main ten - j 1 I ance of 870 miles. Under state care, j 1 i it is autboratively stated this can be | < ; xione for $300 per mile, which would i mean an annual expenditure or the 1 1 ; care of the state highways of $261,000 J : and to this extent relieve local road { taxation. | E The various localities have not as vet felt the burden of the repair of the 4 , public roads -the roads are compare- 1 < tively new, but this burden will soon i , fall heavily upon many municipalities, ; ' rood experts assert The repair itemj* . ia a serious one, for local governrpent, | . in going or with road extension by < ' state aid. If the repair of these great a arteries of travel was laktn uj^in the c state the cost of lateral roads aod their maintenance would be a 'much ] smaller item for counties and towns and it is said that the cost to the state need not exceed the present annual ex- - penditure for state road aib and a large part of this cost, certainly two-thirda, under a reasonable, adequate automobile regiitretion fees, taking the pre*- d ent income to the state, from this j source, would be provided for. What the governor desires to see at- ' , tained is, not only that Ne* Jersey | j, shall construct the beat roads, but that ! , she shall see to it that they are main- j tained at all timea at the highest stat- ; t of efficiency. It is truthfully stated 1 1 that New Jersey is the only spot in the ' republic which has within a radius of | ^ 100 miles of its .state line a' population i b of ten millions of people with two 1 n great cities or over two million people p in each, within oue hundred miles of ! each other and the people of each crossing us to get to the o ber The progressive element of the state desire to take advantages of the golden opportunities, develop its home cities and cause New Jersey to become and ' 'Summer Playground of America.
