This report, the fourth in a series of four volumes produced on urban railroad relocation, describes the nature of the urban railroad location problem and estimates its magnitude nationwide. Costs of urban railroad/highway conflicts are estimated at 800 million dollars annually to highway users in delays and increased running costs, and 185 million dollars in accidents. Annual railroad costs are estimated at 75 to 100 million dollars for slowing and accelerating trains in urban areas and 70 million dollars for maintenance of grade crossing surfaces, marking, and warning devices.

This publication was prepared by the Office of Highway Information Management, Federal Highway Administration. It provides a general historical summary of information dealing with highways, their use, and their financing, thus bringing under one cover a comprehensive statistical review of highway development in the United States through 1995. The information presented in this volume supplements and, in some instances, supersedes similar data presented in the five earlier Highway Statistics Summary publications. Included are statistical and analytical tables of general interest on motor fuel, motor vehicles, driver licensing, highway-user taxation, Federal aid for highways; State and local highway finance, and highway mileage and usage characteristics. A listing of the data is given in the table of contents and a brief description is given in the text accompanying each section.
