| If this works, it looks very good. Still only at the concept stage, though. Plastic Road |

| When I look at that, all I can see is a string of BFTs (Big Fucking Trucks).
Might be fine for small vehicles, but I would be very concerned about its life expectancy when you have a bunch of 80,000 pound trucks on it.

The drawings show a road that is mostly hollow. I think it will have to involve a lot more plastic with a few (relatively small) pipes in it. And even at that, the actual surface maybe needs to be toughened up somehow. But still, it might work out well. |
