That's what I was thinking. I'm a long way from a road engineer though!����
I was told it is a bad idea...hold my beer!

I don't suppose you could go up the hill in a slow spiral...? Many years ago, there was a knoll outside of the town where I lived which had a spiral road to the top; it was pretty neat.
What will by driving on the road when it is finished?
This is a 20% grade, gravel road. Empty 2wd pickups sometimes stop and can't restart without just spinning their wheels, then having to back down a couple hundred feet. About two weeks ago a lumber delivery truck broke its driveshaft here. Most 2wd vehicles, and some 4wd, can't make it with snow on the road.

Have you looked into military road engineering manuals?
I think many of them are available free online.
Lots of good advice already paid for.
USACE Publications - Engineer Manuals list some but there are probably hundreds of TM's elsewhere. Such as https://www.publications.usace.army...s/EM_1110-2-410.pdf?ver=2013-09-04-072903-480
The Seabees probably have similar.

As an aside... the power of Google...
This is what I saw when I opened this thread up today. I've not noticed it before... but it is really beginning to creep me out. Check the names of the books in the ad at the top.
