The Challenge: Reaching a Remote Site Without Causing Damage

A site investigation team needed to access a remote field in County Durham with vans, drilling rigs and other vehicles. The route to the site crossed undulating farmland with soft, uneven terrain. Any attempt to drive across it without protection would risk serious rutting, ground damage and project delays.

Avoiding costly reinstatement and ensuring quick, reliable access was essential. The team turned to GroundGuards for a practical, cost effective solution.

The GroundGuards Solution: MultiTrack for Lightweight, Rapid Deployment

After visiting and assessing the site, GroundGuards recommended MultiTrack, a highly portable and easy to install matting system ideal for this type of cross country access.

Each MultiTrack mat is lightweight and can be laid by hand without the need for lifting machinery. This made it possible to build a robust temporary access road quickly and efficiently, even in the undulating conditions.

With a high traction surface and the flexibility to follow ground contours, MultiTrack helped reduce slipping hazards and ensured safe travel for vehicles across the fields.

Results and Outcome: Fast Access with No Ground Damage

The mats were laid without fuss, enabling instant access to the remote site. The site team were pleased with the solution, which was quick to install, simple to handle and reusable for future work.

Thanks to MultiTrack, the project stayed on track without delays or costly damage to the land. A clean and efficient result.
