Crucial Solutions for Protecting Ground and Improving Logistics
Whether you're managing a large-scale construction project, coordinating a major outdoor event, or overseeing a film production, one of the most critical — yet often overlooked — elements of site planning is temporary roadway infrastructure.
Why Temporary Roadways Matter
Without proper ground protection, even a single pass from a heavy vehicle can cause significant damage to soft or sensitive ground. Ruts, compaction, and erosion can lead to:
- Costly ground restoration after a project concludes
- Safety hazards for workers, vehicles, and visitors
- Environmental damage to grassland, topsoil, and drainage systems
- Project delays caused by vehicles becoming stuck
Temporary trackway systems solve all of these problems in one.
The GT Trax Approach
Our fleet of ground protection mats — including the PowerTrax 60, PowerTrax 40, and TuffTrak — are engineered to distribute vehicle loads evenly, protecting the ground beneath while providing a stable, non-slip surface above.
Each product is built from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and designed to interlock securely, ensuring no movement under load. They can be rapidly deployed and recovered by our professional site crews, making them ideal for tight project timelines.
Applications Across Industries
Temporary roadways are used across a wide range of sectors:
Construction – Access routes for plant and machinery, crane outrigger pads, welfare compound bases.
Events – Festival access lanes, car parking surfaces, backstage routes for production vehicles.
Film Production – Camera tracking paths, equipment access routes, protection for heritage locations.
Environmental Responsibility
At GT Trax, sustainability is at the heart of what we do. Our mats are manufactured from recycled materials and are themselves fully recyclable at end of life. By protecting the ground during your project, you're also protecting the environment for the long term.
