@mrbarricade: I've been taking asphalt maintenance directly to the public, and they want to understand the technical details that make roads last. Here's what matters: mill and fill is the most common asphalt repair method, and the secret is scoring. When you score the old pavement before laying new asphalt, it creates the bond that makes the new layer actually stick and last. This is the kind of infrastructure detail that resonates with everyone, not just engineers. Content like this is how I've found success reaching everyday people who use these streets every day. The difference between a pothole-prone road and a smooth one often comes down to whether contractors took that extra step. This is made for everyone, not just traffic engineers. #UrbanPlanning #Transportation #Infrastructure #CivilEngineering #PublicEngagement #Asphalt #Pavement
