Get vehicles to your land
Access is the first thing a plot needs, and often the thing it lacks. Old farm tracks close up with brambles and fallen trees, winter washout cuts them, and a new plot may have no track at all.
We reopen old tracks by clearing the vegetation and trimming the edges, cut new tracks and driveways with the mini excavator, grade the surface with the tractor, and shape it so water runs off rather than down the middle. Where needed we add drainage channels and culverts, and surface the track with crushed stone, see gravel and soil spreading.
Reopening an old track is different from making a new road. Opening a new track through agricultural, forest or protected land may need permission, so check first with your engineer or the municipality. Tell us if you are unsure.

How the job works
Walk the route
We walk the route with you: width, gradient, gate position, trees and obstacles.
Clear and cut
We clear the vegetation and cut the track or driveway to the agreed line.
Shape and drain
We grade the surface, cut drainage channels and place culverts where water crosses.
Surface
We spread and compact crushed stone if you want a longer-lasting finish.
Water is the enemy of tracks
Most tracks fail because water runs down them. A track that sheds water sideways and has proper channels lasts much longer than a flat one that does not. If your track is blocked by a fallen tree or landslip, see storm damage clearing.
Common questions
Can you make a road for a lorry or fire truck?
We can widen and prepare tracks for larger vehicles, but a lorry road needs a proper base. Tell us the vehicle and we will say what is needed.
How wide should a driveway be?
Usually 3 to 4 metres for a single lane with passing places, but it depends on the site. We will suggest a width when we see it.
Do I need a permit for a new track?
Reopening an existing track is different from making a new one. New tracks on agricultural or forest land may need permission, so check with your engineer or the municipality.
Can you surface it with stone?
Yes, we spread and compact crushed stone. See gravel and soil spreading.
