Description
Building a road on a near-vertical hillside starts with a genius technique called "cut and fill." The bulldozer cuts soil from the high side and uses it to fill the low side, creating a stable bench. Engineers calculate the perfect balance so no dirt is wasted or transported. Layer by layer, the impossible becomes a drivable mountain road.
