	A Road to Ruin
		Originally, the road into the Allen Ranch ran along a fairly north-to-south path, connecting the headquarters to what was then the main road a few miles south of Comstock.
		That road, distanced at 8.5 miles through rough terrain, connects both the Allen Ranch headquarters and some 300 lake lot owners to Highway 90 a few miles northwest of Del Rio.
		And given the lay of the road, Allen was looking at about 300 acres that would ultimately be cut off from the rest and useless to him.

	The Road to Ruin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Roads which do not return as much in value as they cost to build and maintain cause total economic output to decline.
		The mismatch of highway expenditures and demand that has produced clogged urban streets and nearly vacant rural roads is portrayed as an accident, or a result of OPEC manipulations, or Japanese auto manufacturers-anything but what it is: the failure of government in the provision of material goods and services.
		No number or concentration of experts on road construction or of wizards on finance can find the solution to the highway problem until the search is conducted in the area in which the solution lies.

		Thomas Holcroft: "The Road to Ruin; The Deserted Daughter".
		The Road to Ruin is Holcroft’s least inartistic success; but The Deserted Daughter is a more striking indication of the tendency of the theatre.
		But, just at the climax, Grime and Item are detected by means of an intercepted document; Joanna is married to the generous and wealthy young Cheveril; her relationship with Mordent is then made public; and the father, now relieved of his secret, is reconciled to his wife.

	TODAY'S EDITORIAL<BR>Road to Ruin- The Times of India (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		As the World Bank points out, India's road network of 3.5 million km is not exactly unimpressive; the problem lies in its poor quality, inadequate carrying capacity and uneven distribution.
		National highways constitute 2 per cent of the network but carry 45 per cent of all road traffic, even as 40 per cent of India's villages are not connected by all-weather roads and are, therefore, socially and economically deprived.
		The road transport ministry estimates a requirement of Rs 200,000 crore over the decade merely to upgrade national highways and connect them to major cities, while the ongoing National Highways Development Project is billed at Rs 54,000 crore.

	Road to Ruin
		The old road had been apparently hit by a stray meteor hailing probably from the vicinity of Jupiter to such an extent that it becomes difficult to believe that one is stranded at a place not far from an erstwhile regal city – a place, mind you, now reduced to rubble.
		Suffice it to say here that the sometimes necessary work of destruction in progress on Ambo road constitutes a national spectacle that should not be missed by some curious members of our society in quest of dusty adventure.
		We believe that municipal authorities are in dire need of some sort of assistance from abroad in an effort to prevent the road to ruin being systematically built in the city.

	Road to Ruin: Press Release
		The release of Road to Ruin coincides with reauthorization of the six-year transportation bill, which is currently being considered in Congress.
		The proposed highway, part of the largest road construction proposal in Utah's history, would parallel most of the existing I-15, which is itself being considered for expansion.
		Not only would the proposed road duplicate existing interstates and drain transportation funds from projects around Indiana, it would destroy 5,500 acres of farmland and forests and go through the Patoka National Wetlands and Wildlife Refuge, home to various endangered species.

		The actual reconstruction and widening of the road from the Missouri River Water Treatment Plant to Lake Helena Drive is slated for 2009.
		It was gravel until the 1970s, and aside from the reconstruction of the stretch from York Road to the water treatment plant a few years ago, hasn't had any significant upgrades since it was paved.
		Adding to the difficulty is that the existing right-of-way for Canyon Ferry Road has never been recorded by deed over the project's length, so as people and businesses moved into the area, fences, buildings and signs were installed close to the pavement.

		Norwich Union's Pay-As-You-Go trial seeks to establish whether road usage correlates with accident experience, and therefore whether some drivers should be charged substantially less for their insurance depending on when, where, and how they drive.

		Across the country, local communities are recognizing the impact of new road projects on their "quality of life" --- loss of open space and natural areas, increased sprawling development, and more traffic congestion and air pollution.

	An Interview with Jan Lundberg - Sustainable Energy Institute Founder
		The way to measure road congestion is by figuring the percentage of roads near or at capacity during rush hour.
		But only recently have road fighters from all over the world begun to work together and think through all the reasons to stop building roads.
		In more recent times, roads are the precursor to so-called development, leading to all the ills of the modern industrial economy, from oil and gas exploration, to mining, to "ranchettes" and gentlemen's farms.
