Tarmac or Macadam has been used as well.
It seems the term "tarmac" is used to describe an aircraft landing and taxiing area but I've heard it used for other asphalt paved areas, too.

Lately, I've been using the 1mm EVA craft foam like this:

Black craft foam with gray craft paint sponged on works well. I just used a kitchen sponge, but make sure it doesn't have any sort of pattern embossed on it.
Large cracks are easily made by tearing the foam. I made the small cracks by chucking a straight pin into a Dremel and etching them in.
Patches can be made by tearing or cutting out a piece and rinsing off some of the paint.
