Science: how will chemicals used to treat the road react to the environment? what chemicals can be used to make the highway that will not cause problems?

technology: sensors could be placed in the road, especially for stop signs or red lights that will sense the presence of a vehicle.

mathematics: how long will the highway be? what angle will each turn be? how wide should the highway be? how many lanes?
