When my Dad worked for NYSDOT, tar and chip was another way of saying tar and stone. It's a way to lengthen the life span of the asphalt. The tar seals the cracks from the destructive forces of water while the stone gives the tires grip. One of the factors involved in lifespan is how much work was performed prior to laying the topcoat. Did they sweep it off and repave or did they dig up the base and replace everything including the culverts? The road in front of my childhood home was torn up replacing the base and repaved in the early 70s and has been tared and stoned at least 3 times since the 90s.

The road where I live now, a secondary road, was swept and repaved 7 years ago and was tared and stoned 2 years ago. It gets a couple hundred vehicles a day.
