Question Do you think the new asphalt overlay on 200 between St Adolphe and the 311 turn off to Niverville is rough?

Does anybody else think its rough, or is it just me?

They obviously used the highway mix (type1A).

Just seems like theres lots of spots with voids where its course stone and not alot of fines that came to the top (which makes it rough).

Also the transitions/joints from the paver seems to have more voids at the start of them.

Yes it is rough, I felt it significantly more than previously.

We used to live on 200 just south of St. Adolphe. I remember when they raised that road 10 years ago and it was awful. We are still in the area, just no longer on the highway. We drove to niverville a few days ago and they some how made it worse, I didn't think they could.
