It seems that in wet weather many suffer due to a vehicle going off the
tarmac and making a rutt in the adjacent earth. This then leads to the
tarmac crumbling away into the rutt and so it continues.
In my mind I can envisage a machine that could excavate a narrow trench at
the edge of the tarmac that could be followed up with some steel stakes and
reinforcement and then a readymix lorry.
Has anyone seen any solutions that work that are not as major as curbs?
You want to curb the rutt without a kerb?
Recently, several roads in my area have had the edges excavated - just a foot or two - and refilled with coarse stone. Clearly not intended to widen the road, as laying readymix would. Just avoid mud adjcent to the blacktop.
Seems to work.
