YOUR SITE, YOUR REQUIREMENTS
A rural route needs a site-specific approach.
Farm and estate routes can vary widely in their condition and use. Machinery movements, drainage, gradients and existing foundations all influence the work required.
Macrete can discuss surface renewal and associated preparation for your site. Share how the route is used and any recurring problems so these can be considered in the proposed scope.
Farm access roads
Discuss surfacing and repairs to routes used by farm vehicles and deliveries.
Yards & entrances
Consider paved working areas and transitions between existing and new surfaces.
Estate & rural routes
Review condition, traffic and preparation needs for private rural access.
PROJECT PLANNING
Build the brief around your working pattern.
Share the operational details early so the scope, sequence and access arrangements can be considered together.
Machinery & loading
Tell us the vehicles using the route and any particular loading requirements.
Drainage & ground condition
Include water pooling, soft areas and recurring defects in your site information.
Seasonal access
Share busy periods and access requirements so timing can be discussed.

Is surface dressing an option?
It may be considered for a suitable existing pavement. The condition and proposed use need review before a treatment is agreed.
