| 摘要： | The coming of the new millennium provides an excellent time to pause and consider where the low-volume road (LVR) community is headed. This paper summarizes issues and opportunities for the LVR community wordwide in the new millennium. LVRs provide the primary links to the highway transportation system. The LVR link between raw materials and markets is critical to economies locally and nationally in all countries around the world. Just what constitutes an LVR depends on an individual's perspective. LVRs often just evolved, and engineering was an afterthought. Traditionally, LVRs have not provided the volume of business, funding, or glamour to attract and support a specialized field of engineering. The fewer the road users, the less funding is available for road maintenance and restoration, much less engineering. Consequently, LVRs around the world typically need reconstruction and improvement. Insufficient funding is probably the most important issue associated with LVRs. |
