351. "Progress Report for the Season of 1939 on Public Roads Administration Activities on the Yellowstone National Park Highway System Yellowstone National Park Wyoming." Based on meager information we (Bureau of Public Roads) have thus far obtained, it is found that the average traffic density on the Grand Loop Route is 250 to 300 vehicles per hour, and on the Entrance Roads, about 150 per hour. The character of traffic is primarily passenger vehicle traffic, as the volume of truck traffic seldom amounts to more than 5% [sic] of the total. Based on the average annual increase for the past five years, it is reasonable to forecast that in 1945 the traffic density on the Grand Loop will be 400 vehicles per hour and the Entrance Roads, 200 per hour." 355.
