Repairing farm track

[fraggle]

There is some guys near me do it.
I'm pretty sure they travel most of the country.

we used this firm last year, would happily recommend them, and will get them to do another section of the lane when the milk price improves.
Triple six will have driven on some of the lane they did when he picked the muck spreader up last year.

My roadways suffer considerably as we grow vegetables that can be harvested in some pretty wet conditions leaving half the stone we put down either in the field or half way Down the main road each year.
After just purchasing 200 ton of road chips does anyone know of a company near Boston Lincs who incorporate cement into the surface to leave a solid surface as chipping a are getting to expensive to put down this sort of amount each year.
I have looked all over Google.
Thanks

From what I have seen of this process I really wouldn't waste money on the cement process and definitely don't do it in very hot dry weather. I have seen a Contractor's own lane that pushes this process totally breakup in a year!!!!
Also with a rolled finish it's dreadfully slippery and is a highly dangerous finish when it's wet as there is simply no grip.
Best tracks I've seen were put down with a bulldozer pulling a very large vibrating roller and bladed a decent camber on the lane at the same time, so water never sits on it, so even the postman couldn't kill as they normally hit puddles around 40 mph and explode them washing your stone away.

I put a american style post box with the flag at the end.

One posty wouldn't put the flag up so i asked him to deliver to the door as required by law....funny he worked out how to put the flag up then.


Our farm tracks are own quarried stone leveled and tracked in then run over with a dozer and a huge vibrating roller. Used for cows and tractors...but don't like the tractors on them really.
