| | Contruction and Makeup of Roman Roads |
 | | Flint and other small, broken stones are also used to pave the road (Margary 21), and Adam says that sometimes slabs of stone are used (277), though this did not appear before the beginning of the second century B.C. (Adam 278). |  | | These ruts do not necessarily indicate the widths of the wheel-base of Roman vehicles, “for one can not be sure that the ruts form a true pair” (Margary 21-2). |  | | Some are cutting down woodland and clearing the higher ground, others are using tools to smooth outcrops of rock and plane great beams. |

| | Road - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Notable road engineers from this period are Pierre Marie Jérôme Trésaguet (1716-1796) in France and John Loudon McAdam (1756-1836) in England. |  | | The word “street,” whose origin is the Latin strata, was kept for paved pathways that had been prepared to ease travel in some way. |  | | Road signs are often also made retroreflective or even illuminated in rare circumstances. |

| | hackwriters.com - The Road Movie - An Introduction by Sam North - Part One |
 | | In the 1973 Robert Altman's film 'Thieves Like Us' about criminals on the run in the impoverished 1930's landscape provided a brilliant companion piece to the earlier film 'The Grapes of Wrath, which was more about dignity among the poor, than honour among thieves. |  | | The road became a signifier for freedom and the romance of the 'road' became a way of life that would be celebrated in literature and film for the entire twentieth century. |  | | Authur Penn's 'Bonnie and Clyde' 1969 was another stylish take on the road/gangster movie in the same vein and of the same period. |

 | | The Roman roads used deep roadbeds of crushed stone as an underlying layer to ensure that they kept dry, as the water would flow out from the crushed stone, instead of becoming mud in clay soils. |  | | The legions made good time on these roads and some are still used millennia later. |  | | Toll roads peaked in the mid 19th century, and by the turn of the twentieth century most toll roads were taken over by state highway departments. |
