Description - Vol 107 Road Transport Recollections: Road Rollers by Paul Stratford
Early roads were constructed mainly by compacting small pieces of broken stone wither by hand or by horse-drawn roller. With the coming of the steam traction engine, it was Thomas Aveling who first invented the steam roller that we know today in 1867, which enabled the road surface to be better compacted and smoother.
