Description
Florida now has the only "lunar" highway in this galaxy. Man can travel non-stop from Cape Kennedy to the moon — a distance of 238,857 miles in 3| days. It has been proven that willpower and adequate financing can accomplish previously unbelievable tasks. Going to the moon has been the feat of the century.
It seems man does well as long as he is airborne but when he returns to earth trouble starts. There are so many of us now -- and increasing every year --to compound the problem we each have our own private automobiles — at least one. Roads, highways and parking lots are being constructed at a greater rate than ever before but we still are unable to keep up with the demand. Cars are being manufactured faster than roads. Our mobile population is increasing its mobility. It knows where it wants to go and it knows how it wants to get there — but where do we go from here? Control, comfort, cost and convenience are the prime factors. The private automobile satisfies all these requirements but — in many instances you can't get there from here — even where possible we are subjected to road hazards, congestion, pollution, delays and many other aggravations.
Florida — the beautiful vacationland is both typical and unique. Our citizens and visitors demand the same good transportation services as do those of other states but because of many "sociogeoeconomic" factors we are different.
