Default Country Lanes

Who would build a road without proper edges.


Those that cant afford to have what
you call proper edges on all the roads.

Just not feasible on all out major roads outside towns.

Seems to me the fault is built in and its only stupid people who build
such roads in the first place.


Beats having half the roads done how you regard as properly.

It seems that in wet weather many suffer due to a vehicle going off the
tarmac and making a rutt in the adjacent earth. This then leads to the
tarmac crumbling away into the rutt and so it continues.

In my mind I can envisage a machine that could excavate a narrow trench
at
the edge of the tarmac that could be followed up with some steel stakes
and
reinforcement and then a readymix lorry.

Has anyone seen any solutions that work that are not as major as curbs?
