macadam, form of pavement invented by John McAdam of Scotland in the 18th century. McAdam's road cross section was composed of a compacted subgrade of crushed granite or greenstone designed to support the load, covered by a surface of light stone to absorb wear and tear and shed water to the drainage ditches. In modern macadam …

Maintaining a macadam pavement is not difficult. It conceals oil spills better than asphalt and concrete driveways, and it's beautiful finish lasts even if it is not treated on a regular basis. Furthermore, a macadam pavement does not need frequent seal coating, which is often performed every two or three years on asphalt driveways. The only ...
