SPECIAL - DEFERRED Roads and Trails Maintenance | ||
| Region Two | Area Yellowstone National Park | State of Wyoming |
| Item | Estimate | Program 1956 Fiscal Year |
| Re-grading 5 mi., replace 2 culverts (horse) Route 5 | 750 | |
| Re-grading 1 mi., and clearing 5 mi., (horse), Route 7-E | 500 | |
| Re-grading 2 m., (horse) Route 6-F | 350 | |
| Re-grading 2 mi. and marking (horse) Route 7-M | 350 | |
| Replacement 3 bridges, 150 ft. corduroy (horse) Route 7-R | 325 | |
| 3/4" Leveling Course, 1.5 mi. @ $4,000, Route 1E1 | 6,000 | 6,000 |
| 3/4" Leveling Course, 1.0 mi. @ $4,000, Route 1F | 4,000 | 4,000 |
| 3/4" Leveling Course, 2.0 mi. @ $4,000, Route 1H | 8,000 | 8,000 |
| 3/4" Leveling Course, 1.0 mi. @ $4,000, Route 2B | 4,000 | 4,000 |
| 3/4" Leveling Course, 2.0 mi. @ $4,000, Route 3 | 8,000 | 8,000 |

| 3/4" Leveling Course, 2.0 mi. @ $4,000, Route 10 | 8,000 | 8,000 |
| These sections are raveling with lots of potholes. Patching is heavy and costly. The leveling course will restore a smooth riding surface, do away with the excessive patching and reduce maintenance cost. The original surface on many of these sections was placed in the late 1920s and early 1930s. | ||
| Re-seal with chips, 17.5 mi. @ $2,700, E. end Route 10 | 47,250 | 22,935 |
| Re-seal with chips, 1.0 mi. @ $2,700, Route 1B | 2,700 | 2,700 |
| seal with chips, 2.5 mi. @ $2,700, Route 1C | 6,750 | 6,750 |
| seal with chips, 5.0 mi. @ $2,700, Route 1D | 13,500 | 13,500 |

| Re-seal with sand, 2.0 mi. @ $1,200, Route 3 | 2,600 | 2,600 |
| Some of these sections were reprocessed last year and need a seal to keep out surface water and to give wearing surface. Other sections are old and cracking and letting water get into the base. Sealing will give several years' more service to those old roads and reduce maintenance. | ||
| Replace 1,400 lin. ft. Guard Rail with treated material @ $5.00, Route 4 | 7,000 | 7,000 |
| The existing guard rail is rotting, falling down and does not serve as a safety factor any longer. Replacing this rail will provide safety at the most dangerous spots along this section and improve the roadside appearance. | ||
