here in La Paz, near the flats on the south side of town, there is a dirt road that looks oiled, and holds together really well. seems that an oiled dirt road would be easily repaired, and except for the runoff and seepage isn't as much of an environmental disaster as asphalt or concrete roads which need to be torn up and rebuilt every few years. googled and found some discussion on it here.
