You might be interested, I was - but I'm strange :P .

It was very labour intensive 8O .

I think I recognize some of those corners. :twisted:

To be sure, those bloody 'navvies' had to sweat some back in the day..

Many of those big roading 'projects' were 'make work' for unemployed ex-WW I 'diggers',
such as the Great Ocean Road in Vic, & the Nurburgring/Autobahnen in Germany...

These days of course, the only reason one of those 'road work' bastards picks up a shovel..
..is to have something to bloody-well lean on..
