When the pavement was stripped before the new pavement was laid, that spot had a bad damage that looked like it was caused by some car fluid penetrating into pavement. The damage was still there after stripping, i.e. it affected the under layer. Some parts of the street then were stripped of the under layer to repair deep cracks, but this area was not. The new pavement was applied over the damaged under layer. I suspect that this is why it started cracking so quickly and am afraid that it will deteriorate further.
I suspect that, to fix this permanently, the contractor will have to repair the under layer, or the top layer of pavement will crack again quickly.
Thanks again!!
