Default Country lanes - no curbs

I'm sure it could if the construction site was free of services which might
get rather large holes otherwise.

In Guernsey, very few roads outside of towns have curbs.
The blind over there have a bit of a dice with death every day.

Was thiunking as I drove along a lane with deep ruts where the tarmac met
the grass - and wondering what damage it may have done to the vehicle -
that such lanes are a problem - the tarmak crumbles at the edges and keeps
breaking away.
Clearly constucting a road with curbs (kurbs?) woudld be costly - but
having seen a machine continuously casting a centre barrier I wondered is
a
machine could do it.

Imagine a rotating trenching mechanism - toothed wheel - followed up by a
concrete mixing and filling machine - possibly dropping in some
reinforcement.

Could it work?
