Any rough costs to hire/buy temporary trackways

Good luck with that. I looked last year for just that, and all the prices were not for farming. Very much aimed at concerts or utilities, or anyone spending someone else's money. Quickly came to the conclusion that it would be better to strip top soil, terram, and build a road. That way, at least I would have the hardcore if I decided to remove it. I don't have any prices to hand, but seem to remember renting being what I thought it should be to buy and purchasing was dearer than laying concrete!

I suspected that from what I could find.

Looked last year when we were doing a barn. 200m + 25 mats for turning for 6 weeks was about 11 and half grand if I remember correctly. This was to take concrete lorries etc. Though we needed closer to 300m!!! We put in a proper track instead!
