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?


It is afaict a combination of erosion of the earth verge or bank by
increased traffic, oversized tractors and lorries squeezing past each
other and water they running in the gully at the edge of the tarmac and
carrying away all the loose material. It's a big problem round here. If
you drop your wheels into the rut you can loose control and you can
shred your tyres.
