The paper highlights that in countries with backward transportation systems, the concept of 'road' takes on an almost philosophical significance. The paper discusses the Western Highway in Honduras that was financed in 1961 by the first credit ever made by the International Development Association, the World Bank's soft-loan affiliate.
