agree  GaryG: Callaham's suggests "bridging" or "wedging", which looks like I saw the other day when watching a crew dig up a road; the term "macadam" is no longer in use in the U.S. - Callaham's offers "crushed stone" or "gravel"

  -> Crushed stone (road stone) is better than gravel. Gravel is smaller grade.
agree  Yuri Geifman: gravel is the term I see most often

agree  Сергей Лузан: "crushed (broken) rock/stone" in my Русско-английский политехнический слоыварь (Около 90 000 терминов) Москва, "Русский язык", 1982; Russian-English Polytecnic Dictionary (About 90 000 entries), Moscow, 1982, but I'm for gravel like Yuri Geifman

neutral  Vadim Khazin: гравий и щебень отличаются не размером зёрен, а их формой: у гравия зёрна окатанные, а у щебня – неокатанные. И именно щебень (crushed stone) применяется в дорожном строительстве.
6 hrs
  -> So, gravel is "not from this opera", OK? BTW: 1. окатанные зерна у гальки, а неу гравия; 2. гравий также применяется в дорожном строительстве (вспомните близкие нашему сердцу дороги с гравийным покрытием (gravel runway surface). Спасибо за комментарий.

Explanation:
Извините, ошибся: гравий и щебень отличаются и размером, и окатанностью зёрен.
