hi all, new to the forum and saw this thread and I was wondering what you think about it now? I actually did this paving and live on the north end of the lake and work out of Farmington so I drive it everyday. If you think its bad then drive down 171 or 109A and do a comparison. It was only a shim(which we call a big band aid)and was to be 1/2" to 1" thick. the road was so bad that there were spots that were 6" deep of new asphalt. I know it seemed like a waste but not to many jobs get 17 miles of road done and its a thousand times better than it was. Imagine what it would be like if nothing was done to it. Its going to crack and heave but the foot deep ruts should stay decent for a few years. How long can they put off 171? Its almost un-drivable.
