I wonder why more roads can't be like this,
La Route Verte in Québec consists mainly of paved shoulders added to existing two lane roads.
We have zero roads like that around here. I agree that setup is great, but in my area, a 2-lane road means about 2 inches of pavement outside the white line. And with the hills we have, and traffic wanting to go 45-50 MPH, it can be pretty hazardous.
Although a road like that is probably littered with debris to the right of the white line, because cars never travel there. Pavement where cars normally travel is always the least debris-ridden.
