AUTOMOTIVE HISTORY

The movement away from “good dirt roads” began with arrival of automobiles in Arkansas. By 1903, around fifty vehicles were in Arkansas. At that time, the main streets of some towns were paved in brick, but most were dirt. The Arkansas Good Roads Association was founded to lobby for progress in 1903, and started special road districts supported by taxes in 1907. The Dollarway Road from Pine Bluff to Little Rock was the first example of a modern road in the state. The state began numbering highways in 1917, and the Ozark Trails Association issued a map showing distances measured between white rings painted on trees and posts. By 1918, Arkansas had 190 miles of hard-surfaced roads.
