To keep Oklahoma moving ahead with better facilities for increasing traffic, the 1963 Legislature called for a comprehensive appraisal of the State's entire highway, road and street network. As outlined in House Concurrent Resolution No. 504, this included classification of systems, evaluation of improvement needs and analysis of financial requirements and capabilities. The Highway Needs Study, started in the summer of 1963, was conducted under the direction of the Legislative Council's Committee on Roads and Highways, assisted by officials and staff of the State Department of Highways - in cooperation with the U. S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Public Roads. Results of the study provide information necessary for full understanding of Oklahoma's highway transportation problems and a plan for development of adequate improvement programs for highways, roads and streets. They provide a basis for legislative action and for administrative, engineering and fiscal decisions by state, county and city highway officials. Complete documentation of the study procedures, findings and recommendations is contained in several publications, including two major reports: 'Oklahoma Highway Needs' (PB-173 331) and 'Fiscal Programs for Oklahoma Highways.'
