asphalt road
Blacktop driving surface
A road surfaced with asphalt—a dark, tar-based material that hardens into a smooth, durable layer.
Asphalt roads are the standard for modern highways and streets, cheaper and quieter than concrete but requiring more frequent maintenance.
The asphalt road shimmered in the summer heat.
