That also caught my eye. I doubt there's any old growth in Waterloo Region. It all used to be farms, yes?
This is a tiny amount of pavement compared to the amount of roads that we have around here. Also, less road traffic means less need for car-focussed roads.
I was also wondering about asphalt lifetime. Seems that without cars, it should last longer.
