      abstract = {Highway impacts on Ozarks incomes and employment during  the 1950 's are empirically analyzed by means of rank  correlation and stepwise regression.  Results indicate that  highways were not among the most critical factors in the  Ozarks Region's development.  If new highways are built,  two-lane, paved, State-numbered roads connecting existing  Federal routes and also local paved county roads connecting  rural areas with urban centers would be more beneficial for  economic development than other highway types.  Highways  with dissimilar qualities are classified into five distinct  types, with the number of lanes, type of surface, and  network integration used as criteria.  Relevant regional  economic growth theories are also reviewed.},
