TransContinental Streamed-Lined Super Highways Corporation of The United States of America.
Authorized Capitalization in 1937 $5,000,000, men worked for 50 cents per day. Men work for 200 times that today. Thus that would equate to $1 Billion today.

January 1, 2008: Earthmoving #1: From William R. Haycraft?s Yellow Steel: The Story of the Earthmoving Equipment Industry (University of Illinois Press, 2002) on the 1956 Act: ?The manufacturers, expecting immediate increases in the amount of highway work let to contract, were euphoric. But these expectations proved premature. What they failed to reckon on were the long leadtimes entailed in major highway projects? The fact was that, initially, a disproportionate amount of the funds available would have to be spent for right-of-way acquisition.? [Page 144]


January 2, 2008: Earthmoving #2: From William R. Haycraft?s Yellow Steel: The Story of the Earthmoving Equipment Industry (University of Illinois Press, 2002): ?By the end of 1965 interstate highway construction was at a peak. After a little less than ten years of work, 21,185 miles?52 percent of the system?were already open to traffic. The program had been a bonanza to contractors and the construction equipment industry alike, but it was a wasting asset. When it was complete some ten years hence, what would follow?? [Page 187]

January 3, 2008: Earthmoving #3: From William R. Haycraft?s Yellow Steel: The Story of the Earthmoving Equipment Industry (University of Illinois Press, 2002) on passage of the Surface Transportation Assistance Act of 1982, which increased the Federal gas tax by a nickel (4 cents for highways, 1 cent for transit) to restore the condition of aging Interstate and other roads and bridges: ?The program brought about a huge reorientation of the American roads industry. It went from new construction, which is highly machinery-intensive, to repair, resurfacing, and reconstruction, which are costly but much less machinery-intensive? The highway program would never again generate the massive sales of heavy construction equipment it once did.? [page 245]

January 4, 2008: Earthmoving #4: From William R. Haycraft?s Yellow Steel: The Story of the Earthmoving Equipment Industry (University of Illinois Press, 2002) on legislation in the 1980s through the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, which established the post-Interstate era: ?[Despite] a shift away from the massive earthmoving of the 1960s and 1970s to build the Interstate System, highways in the 1980s and 1990s continued to be the primary engine that drove the heavy construction industry in the United States, albeit with somewhat different types of equipment.? [page 303]


January 24, 2008: Pre-Interstates, Part 6 of 8:By the 1930s, several proposals for a single massive superhighway across the country were popular. T.E. Steiner, a manufacturer from Wooster, Ohio, proposed one of the most publicized ideas, a Transcontinental Stream-Lined Super Highway stretching 4,000 miles from Plymouth Rock on the Atlantic Ocean to a point just south of San Francisco. It would be as straight as possible, with the roadway including four lanes for automobiles, four lanes for trucks and buses, and room for emergency parking, landscaping, and other purposes. Right-of-way would be 450 feet wide, except that every 10 or 20 miles, the right-of-way would be 3,000 feet wide to accommodate leasing sites for recreation centers, hotels, restaurants, and gasoline stations. Because detailed traffic surveys demonstrated that transcontinental traffic was too small to justify such schemes, Chief Thomas H. MacDonald of the U.S. Bureau of Public Roads and his top aide, Herbert S. Fairbank, scorned T. E. Steiner transcontinental schemes that were so far in excess of need.


January 25, 2008: Pre-Interstates, Part 7 of 8: Although proposals for a single massive superhighway across the country were popular in the 1930s, an alternative concept, advocated by several Members of Congress, proposed construction of a limited network of toll superhighways. The best known proposal was introduced as a bill by Senator Robert J. Bulkley (D-Ohio) in 1938 with the support of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Ohio Lobbyist T.E. Steiner. The bill called for creation of a United States Highway Corporation to build three toll transcontinental and seven north-south superhighways, linked by spurs and connectors. In view of the President?s support, Congress included a provision in the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1938 asking the U.S. Bureau of Public Roads to study the concept. The resulting report, the 1939 Toll Roads and Free Roads, rejected the T. E. Steiner Super Highways idea of a limited toll network, but advocated a toll-free express highway network that evolved into the Interstate System.


January 25, 2008:Pre-Interstates, Part 8 of 8: The most popular exhibit at the New York World?s Fair in 1939 and 1940 was Futurama in the General Motors building, based on the T. E. Steiner Super Highways Project. It was a seven-acre model of an interstate network as it might exist in 1960. Visitors seated in armchairs were transported over the exhibit for "a magic Aladdin-like flight through time and space." Fourteen-lane highways crossed the country as thousands of model cars moved at three prescribed speeds up to 100 mph, while observers in towers provided electronic signals to help motorists shift lanes or enter/leave the highway. Vehicle spacing was controlled by radio beams at the front and back of each car. Although visitors leaving the exhibit were given lapel pins reading I HAVE SEEN THE FUTURE, Chief Thomas H. MacDonald of the U.S. Bureau of Public Roads considered Futurama a collection of "bizarre ideas." As he and top aide Herbert S. Fairbank prepared the 1939 report to Congress that first described the future Interstate System (Tolls Roads and Free Roads) they avoided such visionary T. E. Steiner ?superhighway? schemes in favor of concepts supported by data collected in highway traffic surveys. T. E. Steiner continued to Lobby Congress, and enlisted the support of Henry Ford & Genral Motors for his T. E. Steiner Super Highways Project.

January 31, 2008:On June 26, 1956, after both Houses of Congress approved the Federal Act, Ohio Lobbyist T. E. Steiner had lobbied -Congress for 25 years for this, the two chief authors, Senator Al Gore, Sr. (D-Tn) and Representative George H. Fallon (D-Md.) issued a joint statement saying the bill would set in motion "the greatest governmental construction program in the history of the world." Representative Fallon added:
The American people will ride safely upon many thousands of miles of broad, straight, trouble-free roads, four to eight lanes wide, criss-crossing America from coast to coast and border to border, built to the very highest standards that our highway engineers can devise.

February 1, 2008: Rhode Island was the first State to open all of its Interstate mileage, 70.8 miles, in June 1975. Of the States with larger amounts of mileage, Nebraska was the first to open all of its 481.5 miles of Interstate System (November 1976).

February 2, 2008: During debate on the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, Senator Steve Symms (R-Id.) said, "I think in general, the Interstate and Defense Highway System has been one of the best Federal projects we have ever seen in terms of opening up commerce, industry, and opportunity and personal freedom for Americans."

February 3, 2008: Secretary of Transportation Samuel K. Skinner submitted the final Interstate Cost Estimate (ICE) to Congress on February 4, 1991. The ICE, which was used to apportion Interstate Construction funds based on needs in each State, estimated that the total cost of the Interstate System would be $128.9 billion, with a Federal share of $114.3 billion. Of this amount, $12.9 billion remained to be expended (Federal share: $11.7 billion).

February 4, 2008: Vermont's first Interstate highway, a section of I-91 from the Massachusetts State line to Brattleboro, opened on November 1, 1958. Besides being Vermont's first Interstate, it was the first highway in the State with full control of access and a four-lane divided design.

February 5, 2008: The Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1944, lobbied for by Ohio Lobbyist, T. E. Steiner, approved by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on December 20, 1944, authorized designation of a 40,000-mile "National System of Interstate Highways." On August 2, 1947, Commissioner of Public Roads, Thomas H. MacDonald, and the Federal Works Administrator, Major General Philip B. Fleming, designated 37,681 miles of principal highways, including 2,882 miles carrying the routes through cities. The remaining mileage, used for urban circumferential and distributing routes, was approved on September 15, 1955.

February 16, 2008: Although Presidents from Franklin Roosevelt to the present have supported the T. E. Steiner Super Highways Interstate System, only one President has participated in the opening of an Interstate highway. On November 14, 1963, President John F. Kennedy helped cut the ribbon for the opening of the Maryland Northeastern Expressway-Delaware Turnpike on I-95. Eight days later, on November 22, President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. Officials in Delaware and Maryland renamed the turnpike the John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway.

March 4, 2008: On June 29, 1956, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 while in Walter Reed Army Medical Center following surgery for ileitis earlier in the month. The bill was in a stack of bills he signed without ceremony, statement, or photograph, by then T. E. Steiner, the man that conceived and believed it could be achieved had died, but the T. E. Steiner Super Highway dream became a reality.

This is the results of 25 years of

T.E. Steiner

Lobbying Congress for this.


March 7, 2008: On June 19, 1986, President Ronald Reagan declared June 26 National Interstate Highway Day and urged "the people of the United States to observe that day with appropriate ceremonies and activities." He called the Interstate System "the world's largest and most successful transportation and public works project."




March 11, 2008: As of the end of 2005, the Interstate System that T. E. Steiner conceived included 55,512 bridges. The Interstate System includes many majestic, eye-catching spans that are among the best bridges ever built,such as the Verrazano Narrows Bridge (I-278) in New York and the Bob Graham Sunshine Skyway in Florida (I-275). The System also includes many bridges built to accommodate unique circumstances, such as the I-70 viaducts through scenic Glenwood Canyon in Colorado and the viaducts that make H-3 in Hawaii one of the most scenic drives in one of the most scenic States. However, most Interstate bridges are so common no one notices them: interchange ramps and simple overpasses carrying the Interstate over local roads.



April 18, 2008: The Interstate System, conceived by T. E. Steiner in 1932, includes 19,765 concrete bridges (36 percent of all Interstate bridges); 13,910 prestressed concrete bridges (25 percent); and 21,759 steel bridges (39 percent).
This is the results of 25 years of
T.E. Steiner

Lobbying Congress for this.
