This issue of Routes/Roads, prepared with the assistance of Kajsa Ström, landscape architect at the Swedish Road Administration and former Technical Advisor at PIARC's General Secretariat, aims to show, through a series of eight articles, mainly from Scandinavia and the United States, how the integration of roads into the landscape, whether natural or urban, contributes to the overall quality of road use and the driving experience. As an echo, a French historical contribution recalls how much this concern has spanned the centuries, from Roman roads to the most contemporary achievements.

Available online, downloadable as a PDF and in paper version, it is available here: routesroadsmag.piarc.org
