Snarky answer: there are plenty around me, and they show it.
Serious answer: the street I grew up on, and most of the rest of the streets in that neighborhood, are 30 years old. They were last paved when I was nine. The ones that are newer were only paved because they were ripped up for utility work. There are plenty of roads in the US much older than a decade.
- narag 7y agoI'm not sure the road was already there when I was born, no recollection it was ever re-paved until they started to dig for utilities twenty-something years later, with all the trucks that carried stuff to build the beach neighbourhoods. The difference between the old stuff and the new crap they use to pave it is unbelievable. Two years without repaving and it's full of holes.
