In an interesting article on
REINFORCED
CONCRETE ROADS
The subject is referred to in the following
manner:—
“ The adoption of reinforced concrete in the con-
struction of roads, although never taken up with the
same enterprise in this Country as in the United States
and Canada, is becoming more general, and amongst
road engineers the opinion is gaining ground that if
efficiently constructed of proper materials a reinforced
concrete road is capable of proving very durable even
under the heaviest of traffic and can also be made to
present a surface upon which the necessary tractive
effort is reduced to a minimum, which is an important
matter relative to modern methods of motor trans-
port. . .
