Highway Transport Logistics company history timeline

1954

These pressures culminated in the establishment by President Dwight Eisenhower of the Clay Committee in 1954.

1956

Missouri became the first state in the union to begin work on the Interstate in August 1956.

Following this committee’s recommendations, the Federal Aid Highway Act and the Highway Revenue Act of 1956 provided funding for an accelerated program of construction.

1972

The government anticipated that the entire system would be built by 1972 – a target date that was wildly optimistic.

2000

During the Bronze Age, the availability of metal tools made the construction of stone paving more feasible; at the same time, demand for paved roads rose with the use of wheeled vehicles, which were well established by 2000 bc.

Concurrently, transport services evolved, of varying quality, to meet traveller’s needs. It was the size and economic complexity of the expanding Roman Empire together with the need to rapidly move troops that generated a demand for a system of transport to move large volumes of goods and people over long distances over 2000 years ago.
