Abstract

This paper describes satisfactory methods of low cost road construction used by the Victorian Country Roads Board. Attention is drawn to the low traffic burden on the rural road system, and to the question of soil analysis. Figures showing the order of the cost of construction, and maintenance of various types are given, and the appendix gives the physical properties of some characteristic materials.
