Resurfacing:

We've been finding a loss of friction on surfaces worn smooth
by long use. Heavier wheel loads and studded tires are causing increased
damage to thin surface and base courses, especially on roads
constructed for lighter traffic before urban growth took over the
rural roadways. Examine the depth and condition of pavement and
subbase when you are writing maintenance programs; surface evidence
alone is an insufficient indicator.
