we were coming down hampton road passed the furnace then made the right at high crossing and heading to godfreys bridge on according to the map on here its tuckerton rd , i thought it was hampton gate rd tho , and quite a few miles of that trail was bulldozed getting closer to washington turnpike as almost they were making it a 2 lane highway , it looked freshly done ,and tore up a bunch of trees and such. has anyone seen this yet and why they did this ?

That's the spot. The FFS spent allot of time reciently tearing up roads that weren't a problem while ignoring sections that are almost impassible. What did you think of their work at Hampton Furnace? They trashed it so bad that I don't go there anymore.

Grading can do the job if the holes aren't too deep, but it has to be done right, by putting a crown in the road. Simply grading it flat results in a mess not too far down the road, so to speak. Like many things, it's a little bit skill and a little bit art.

Unfortunately the FFS has neither.
