Thisexperimental section not only proved to be sturdy, it was in use for more thana century before being replaced with new concrete paving.Today, it is a historical site, marked by a statue of Bartholomew. When theroad in Bellefontaine was paved, America moved by horse and buggy, andjust about every road in the nation was unpaved. Now, there are nearly4-million miles of road crisscrossing the country, including more than46-thousand miles of interstate highway.Look for more interesting traffic facts to come in the next Quarterly Report.LOCAL INVOLVEMENTCONTINUEDRIGHT OF WAY FIRMSAbstractsLauck Land Co.Gulf South Land and TitleRoberts Land ServicesGodail Abstracting ServicesJames Gist (sole proprietor)AppraisalsVallery LoweryGeorge Platt, IncRoss ShuffieldThe Lakvold Group LLCJames Inc.James G.
