The rapid expansion of the railroads in the late 1800´s was encouraged by the goverment through land grants from the federal Government. On receiving these public lands the railroad companies were able to construct the railroads on such land, leaving a surplus of land that they could sell, which financed construction itself.

meriva

The correct answer is:

the cost of the bike path

The cost of a five-foot bicycle lane can range from approximately $ 5,000 to $ 535,000 per mile, with an average cost around $ 130,000. The costs can vary greatly due to differences in project specifications and the scale and length of the treatment. For this reason it is of vital importance to know the cost of the bike lane, because being a busy road the cost could rise.
