Rural Roads in Afghanistan
I need to get loaded trucks through a rural part of Afghanistan. The roads between camps are made of silty sandy soil which will become wet (I am told) during winter. I have looked at having a local contractor use aggregate to lay on the surface but his price is too much. Is there a cheap short term solution such as an off-the-shelf temp road surface I could lay or a concrete system? Sorry to be a bit vague but the soils are strangely weak in that it is very powdery and yet very strong when compact. Any help would be appreciated.
