Hi all

Just wondering if anyone has had success with an RP4 hardcore track application with CSF support?

The main sticky point is we are classed as in a flood zone

Be great if we had a case that was RP4 in flood zone that was successful

many thanks

Not in flood zone but we got CSF approval for 450m of track, was very easy. Nearly finished them now. Contact your local officer and they will come and have a look.

How close has the grant (£44.63 if that's up to date) got to covering the cost ? Done in-house or used a contractor ?

Used a contractor, one man band, on the digger, then I have taken the stone out using his tractor and trailer and 6t dumper. Grant was for the track, 3 troughs, pipework and fencing it. Also put in an extra 250m of spur tracks. I think the grant should pretty much cover all the work, including the extra tracks.

Doing more of these hardcore tracks next week
Did some last year & because i had some of the materials for free (Long Story) i was into pocket by enough to help with next one.
Used all the free materials up now, but at £44.63 as mentioned its just about covering its cost thankfully.
Its just laying the money out & reclaiming it hoping there is no issues is always the concern
Last year first track claim all paid within 3 wks.
