| Request for this extension REJECTED but has possibilities. Considerable mileage in the three States involved is below the required standards. If and when the substandard sections are improved to acceptable and current standards a resubmission of the application by the States involved will be in order. It is anticipated that traffic will increase when the standards of the road are improved. | ||
