Removing turf from hardcore and concrete

[Paddington]

Over the years our steep drive and turning area have been getting overgrown with grass. Looks pretty in the summer, but in wet weather turns into a slippery mess. Spent a couple of hours digging up a square metre by hand, with another 40 or so to go and thought there must be a quicker way, perhaps Roundup first ?
Thought there has been a similar thread on here but can't find it.

In my experience with gravel paths ...... If it's got grass .crap on top . I shouldn't have let it get that bad ..... If I roundup. When it dies it makes a soggy mess
I'd dig it off first
Poss spray after uve redressed ??
