      abstract     = {Roads dominate our daily surroundings and are essential
                      conditions of the access to the visual landscape. This paper
                      focuses on the dual landscape role of secondary and tertiary
                      roads in a semi-rural setting, to be understood as the
                      access to scenery and as their direct influence to the
                      landscape characteristics. A combination of techniques was
                      used including a radiocentric morphological landscape
                      analysis, a perception study on landscape photographs and a
                      cumulative logit model to assess the factors of landscape
                      appreciation in this kind of environment. The results show
                      that roads do not entirely open up the information content
                      of the visual landscape. Furthermore, roads and built fabric
                      seem to have a negative impact on landscape appreciation.
                      This result does not rely on the structures themselves, but
                      on the artificial materials they are constructed of. The
                      methodology applied proves to be useful and is probably
                      applicable in other geographical contexts. It can be a
                      supporting tool to plan and manage road networks for
                      improvement of landscape quality, especially in parts of the
                      countryside strongly affected by urban sprawl. (C) 2009
