It's just the state trying to save money when in fact it costs them more in the long run...

Right, why not use the thicker high grade stuff when obviously it is needed. They use that higher grade stuff on US 19 and there are never potholes on that road. A few feet away however and the lower grade stuff is pothole riddled.

I once asked my uncle why the roads in west palm beach were always being worked on and always torn up - certainly all the many mega millionaires there would want nice roads for thier bentleys and rolls royce and such. He said shades I know some of the city council - some of thier friends and relatives are road construction contractors - and if we made the roads so good they would never have to be fixed again - well there goes a lot of jobs and economy and kickbacks - hehe. If the RICHEST people in the world in west palm beach can't carry more weight with thier elected representatives than the kickback crooks do - what chance does your area or my area have? :(
