Labor-intensive road rolling helped to create smoother and less permeable roads
|
 |
The earliest history of road rolling in Europe can be traced back to the 18th century when roads were of significant military importance. Roads of high quality also played an important role in the British colonization of India. As the quality and life of roads increased due to road rolling, the British found it easier to travel to different parts of the country thereby expanding their rule.  |
