I have passed it along, however since the flooding damage, this will have to receive a low priority. Now there are many roads in VT that are completely washed out along with some bridges, thus the fact that there is a road at all is great.

Hopefully, the next time they repave it, they'll tear out the ancient concrete road below the asphalt, as that's what creates the regular cracks across the road and the longitudinal crack a few feet from the edge.

@jbarner13 cool that you noticed that jbamer! My father who used to travel that old concrete road said the same thing to me. LOL

Great - helpful - thanks! I always wondered why there were symmetrical cracks in a black-top road. Mystery solved! I assume that you've passed this link onto the state highway commisioner :-)

Strangely US2 looked basically the same 10 years ago.
