This video shows the final steps in the street paving process. I viewed the action from my driveway. As a convoy of steel-wheeled rollers compress and compact the just-paved southbound lane, an asphalt paver lays the top layer on the northbound lane. The dump truck containing the hot asphalt empties its load and a fully loaded truck backs in to take its place. Several workers follow directly behind the paving machine, using hand tools to rake and smooth the hot asphalt.
