frost heaves on the road

[avenger79]

Any body else having to deal with massive frost heaves along their route to work or play? some of our roads are like driving on washboard gravel roads with large washboards. LOL
couple of the ones on the highway will jar your fillings if you hit them at speed.

Yep. But it helps rid the truck of ice....... Now if the plow would stop bouncing....

I remember the stretch of i-94 just east of the twin cities being 15 miles of pot holes and heaves with their own zip code.

I've got 2 frost heaves in my kitchen floor, from when it was -29* a few weeks ago.

Re: frost heaves on the road

You haven't seem bad pot holes until you drive around metro Detroit, or anywhere in Michigan for that matter. We have the most lax weight laws in the union, because we used to actually build cars here (trucking). But they have been ignored for the last couple decades, and even new road construction is awarded to the cheapest bid. They last less then a few years before they start to break up. We have two seasons in Michigan, winter and red barrel season. They should just install the construction barrels right next to the new roads, they will be there in such short order, it's the locals favorite discussion topic.
