In 1883, counties began commissioning roads by increasing taxes. With the development of the automobile industry, better roads were needed. There were problems with old roads. The State Highway Department was created in 1917. There was gradual improvement and road construction began in the 1920's. By 1940, Texas would have approximately 21,000 miles of roads.
