Despite the potential from cross-sectional evidence, we know little about how to design new, or improve or promote existing UGS for health, wellbeing, social and e…

It is true that turnpikes were relatively unimportant as main lines of transport, yet most American farmers, and many townsmen, were not fortunate enough to live on a waterway or a railroad line. To these people, the quality and cost of common road transportation was a matter of everyday concern. In the nineteenth century, as in the twentieth, the turn…
