For what thickness and width? Typical finished and compacted asphalt concrete weighs 140 to 150 lbs per cubic foot. The density depends on how compact it is and what type, size, and percentage of aggregates are used.

So a one yard by one yard cut of a typical local road (4" thickness) should weigh close to 450lbs

How much does liquid asphalt weigh per gallon?

Liquid asphalt has a specific gravity range from 0.98 to 1.02. Typically, a specific gravity of 1.0 is used. This can vary with the type of asphalt and the temperature of the asphalt. A specific gravity of 1.0 is the same as water measured at the reference temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit. This specific gravity of 1.0 corresponds to a density (or specific weight) of 1 gram per cubic centimeter (1 g/cm3) or 62.4 pounds per cubic foot (62.4 lb/ft3) or 8.34 pounds per gallon (8.34 lb/gal)


Is rubber recyclable?

Yes - it is used along with Asphalt for road paving in many states. Creates a much easier ride for automobiles. This does not mean it is recycleable. This example is re-using it (or downcycling it). As far as I know, rubber is not recycleable, in the sense that you can not take old rubber scraps and somehow treat them to bond together into a fresh sheet of rubber. Glass is recycleable because you can take pieces and rework them together. Using them in asphalt is not recycling, it's simply using them as filler in the concrete/asphalt. It's much better than sending rubber to landfill, but it's not recycling per se. Once it is used in asphalt it's more or less impossible to recover.
