the qu....Uon of future volu..es on any new fac11ity is
extremely intereating. The Matory of paat volU1lle predic_

Interstate Syste"" with the driv1ng convenience associated
with these facilities, will, In all probsbility, increase
trafUc volUlllu even ..or, than orlgin.lly anticipated. Inter_
state 65 between Indianapolis .nd Chicago will undoubtedly
carry hea ..y ..olu...... of through traffic in the future, and th,
particular length of highWlly Included in this study will also
carry heavy volum" of coamuter traffic between the central
business district of Indianapolts and the suburbs which are
already growing northward fro.. Indianapoli. past the south
end of this facHity.
Table 4 indicates the annual aversv,e daily trafUc
[HOT) Uguras for the sectton of existing U. S. 52 included
within th, study ar,a prior to the improvement. The corres

this study appears in Table 9 , as obtll1ned fro", the accident
reports on file with the Indiana State Police. All of the
data ahown for l''''rlon and Hendrich Counties are for U. S. 52.
and the 1957 throu~ 1959 data for Boone County are also for
U. S. 52 only. The daU shown for Boone County in 1960 In~
eludes the seven "'lIe sectlon of Interstate 6$ north of the
S. R. 334 interchange as well as all of old U. S. ~2 within
the Boone County study area.
Thrae accidentS occurrad on the short section of
u. S. $2 in Hendricka County in the four year period for
whiCh data were obtainad, with no fatalities and two in_
juries recorded.
Of the thirty~seven accidents in Boone County In 1960,
nineteen occurred at the S. II. )34 interchanse, where for ,"oat
or 1960 vehicles were required to use only U. S. 52 from that
point to the southeast. l'~et of these accidents were caused
by the Intarchanse beins ueed for a purpose for which it _s

Once improvements are added to a tract of land it be
