This is worse than Pompeii. The ancient Roman city wasn’t buried under lava, but under ash, rock and boulders. While that is still very deadly, it isn’t nearly as destructive as lava. That’s why we can still experience Pompeii architecture, art and culture. Excavating this road, covered in solidified lava, is extremely difficult and costly. Just go over it, once it’s cooled.
Bro that’s the new Iceland, anything underneath has been Pompeii’d

‘cool’ is relative - the have to water the roads they build over the top to stop them melting!
Missed opportunity. We could have messed with the future.
