Not just a Boston thing, a MA thing! There is a stretch of road by me that I don't even drive anymore, let alone ride. They redid the water pipes on this road almost 2 years ago, and then just patched it back in. In the winter, the work areas sink a couple inches and they just coldpack them, and in the summer, they dig it up more. I don't think they are ever going to repave it!
