A big part of the issue is that the road was originally paved with concrete. Since then the area has grown exponentially. I remember a time when the Showcase Theater was there almost by it itself and there was very little development on the northbound side of rt 5. Anyhow concrete and asphalt don’t play well together, the reality is that the concrete should be torn up and replaced with asphalt, the other part of the problem is that the infrastructure beneath the road is failing ( same as many other areas) so the road is always getting torn up.
