DENIED

For. the reason that the Dothan, Alabama area and the Panama City, Florida area are now connected by a U. S. Route and that there is no indication of overcrowding of the existing route. Further, the new proposed route does not qualify because it does not meet the requirements set forth in Item 14 of "Purpose and Policy in the Establishment and Development of the U. S. Numbered Highways," adoptad January 1, 1959. Lastly, the purpose of the U.S. Route Numbered System is to provide the shortest and best route between major areas with duplication in accordance with Item 4 of the above referred to policy.
