I agree 100%. I expressed my opinion to the FDOT (Florida Highways) about the condition of the nearly new 301 improvement between Oxford and Wild Wood. In my career, I also supervised miles of resurfacing using a asphalt mixture. In my 38 years of active working, this has to be the worse resurfacing project I have ever seen. If I had supervised a project this bad, I would have been fired. If you travel this section of highway. make sure your seat belt is fastened.
