Road gravel, also known as road base gravel, crushed road stone, aggregate base, or driveway gravel, is a compactable blend of angular crushed stone, smaller aggregate, and fines designed to create a strong, stable driving surface. Its balanced gradation allows the particles to lock together tightly under pressure, forming a dense foundation that supports vehicle traffic and helps resist rutting, shifting, and settlement.
The coarse stone provides load-bearing strength, while the smaller particles fill the spaces between the aggregate and improve compaction. When properly placed, graded, and mechanically compacted, road gravel creates a firm, durable base for residential driveways, private roads, parking areas, and commercial access routes.
Road gravel is popular because it provides dependable structural support, efficient coverage, and long-term performance across a wide range of construction and site-development projects. It can be used as a finished gravel surface or as a base layer beneath asphalt, concrete, pavers, or finer aggregate.
