GOUDA - The A12 motorway is closed because it is being re-asphalted. Due to the severe frost, the cold, and the road salt, the asphalt has been damaged and broken down. The road surface deteriorates due to frost because water seeps into small cracks in the asphalt, freezes, expands, and thus damages the road surface, leading to loose stones, larger cracks, and holes, especially after periods of frost with heavy precipitation and thawing.
