I'd rather see the opposite - a modern road construction without modern usage after 2000 years

There is a rail trail near my house that seams to be similarly constructed to a road.

It hasn't held up well, requires continuous maintenance and additional asphalt.

I have a theory that modern road technology isn't the best, it's the most short term profitable. Designed to wear down and require maintenance and new purchases.

Ive read the roman roads were built to never send aaintenance crew to. What exactly that means, I have no idea
