EROSION

Step-by-step explanation:

The water that is on the left of the picture is most likely eroding the road away;

The water picks up the soil and chunks of rock and drags them to different locations, which is erosion.

This is not weathering because the water is carrying sediments and rocks away, not breaking them down directly
