Road Preservation and Dust Prevention Classic Reprint by William Pierson Judson Book PDF Summary
Excerpt from Road Preservation and Dust Prevention The preservation of surface and the prevention of dust on macadamized roads form the problem now to be solved by engineers charged with the maintenance of the many thousands of miles of broken-stone roads which have been built throughout Europe during the past century, and in certain of the United States during the past decade. During 1906, with the increased use of motor-cars, this problem became acute, and in 1908 it is conceded to be a matter of prompt betterment, or general destruction, of costly highways. This implies that new roads proposed and in progress must be better built than the old ones; that they must be better bonded and surfaced; and that these results must be reached, if possible, without unduly increasing the cost.
