Photo of Old Bentong Road upgrading works in 1940s using the old method of macadam road construction. Crushed stones of 100 to 150 mm sizes that were manually laid and rolled with steam roller were commonly used in the olden days. Note the cloud of steam generated behind the roller and the small chimney discharging smoke from burning coal. (Photo courtesy of Jabatan Penerangan). 79
