Seems that the crusher mulcher machine that was run down the road last week was indeed used to recycle the old road into a base for a completely new road.
After munching-up the old road into a loose base the county decided to let everyone and everything drive on it for a week. Compacting it. Then they rolled over it with road graders and other heavy machinery - compacting it further.
Then they ran an asphalt paving machine over the base (constructed from the previous road surface) and laid and rolled-out a very nice and smooth surface.
I would be willing to bet that this is the best that this road has looked since it was a dirt track a hundred years ago. I cannot wait to ride my bicycle on this. There's nothing like riding your bike on new asphalt.
It's also going to be a nice match with the new asphalt driveway that is scheduled to be constructed.
No more gravel from the plow in my yard or stones in the house.
