Description

Large strips of asphalt along the Turnpike and turning into Waite st. are degraded several layers deep. Pub works came by with cleaners and vacuum truck a few weeks ago, each truck made several passes; two days later asphalt chunks & gravel all over the place again. This road is patched yearly from Davis to North Haven & the patches don't hold. Since this road is heavily used by dumptrucks, semis, fleets of school buses, and rush hour commuters, maybe it is time to finish the repaving begun several years ago. The temporary fixes are simply not working and cars and pedestrians, and children are getting sprayed by gravel by passing vehicles.
