    Macadamise is the process of constructing or improving a roadway or pavement by laying crushed stone or gravel in tightly packed layers and then binding it, usually with tar or bitumen. This creates a hard, smooth and durable surface. The term is derived from John Loudon McAdam, a Scottish engineer who developed the technique in the 19th century.
