Default Repair sunken asphalt ramp

I have a small ramp built of asphalt about 5 feet wide and 4 feet in length

I would like to rebuild it up with asphalt such as Bomix. *My question is -
do I need to put some type of adhesive on the old surface before laying the
new asphalt, or is Bomix potholes repair asphalt the material to use?
Would concrete mix on top of the old ram a better idea to repair this ?


I agree with those who say that it will continue to sink.

Frankly it will probably cost about the same to rip it out, fix the
base, and replace with concrete or a treated wood ramp.
