Gravel drive options
Posted: Fri Jul 13, 2012 11:12 am
Hi,
I'm looking at a couple of options for a gravel driveway but as my drive is on a reasonable incline (1:6) and will be fairly well trafficed I'm concerned that a traditional gravel on MOT1 will mean that the gravel will constantly migrate towards the road.
I've looked at a couple of alternative systems, just wondering if anyone has any experience of them good/bad/indifferent.
1) Ground reinforcement grids - such as Ecopave or Bodpave... seems a pretty easy system to install yourself just concerns me that the grid will always be visable in parts.
2) Resin Bound Pavings - such as Sureset. Finish looks great and durable but I can see this being a very expensive option.
Any feedback would be much appreciated.
Thanks
