Dover-- The Department of Transportation (DelDOT) wishes to advise motorists that they may encounter roads this summer season that have recently been paved using what is known as "microsurfacing," as opposed to traditional asphalt. DelDOT started using this paving technique a few years ago, as it is about one-fifth the cost of traditional asphalt. Microsurfacing is a thin, tough layer of asphalt emulsion containing aggregate (rocks), water and mineral fillers.

Hope it is not like that crap that they put down on Old Stage Road. That road is rougher than it ever was. They had to go back out and fix about a quarter of it...what a waste of money. They didn't even clean up the dead animals when they were there working. Guess it wasn't their job.
