In the development of modern highway systems there is a serious need for a low-cost secondary road that will accommodate a limited heavy traffic and an unlimited light traffic. In the western part of the United States a light type of asphaltic binder known as fuel oil has been successfully used to treat crushed aggregate. Whether mixed at a central pug-mill plant, or on the road itself, the costs are about the same, and the result has proved economical in first cost and maintenance charges.
