It's a damn embarrassment that's for sure. Plus it beats the crap out of your car. That whole stretch of road needs a major repave!

It is from all the wet weather we have been having this past year topped off with the multiple freeze and thaw cycles recently. The freezes lifts the already cracked/broken pavement, traffic moves the lifted around, then the thaws let it break apart. At this time there is honestly nothing that can be done until it warms up and dries out other than dump the "cold mix" into the hold to soften the bumps. The first section of this page explains why its taking so long. homerenovations.about.com/od/outdoorrenovations/a/artinstasphalt_4.htm
