When installing a gravel driveway, an ideal gravel driveway depth is 10mm for pathways. 20mm driveway gravel depth for normal driveways and at times gravel driveway depth of 15omm for the heavy vehicles. The system reinforces driveways stability and significantly prevents any movement of gravel which allows vehicular traffic.

Gravel driveway design is designed in such a way it conforms to Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS regulations), that is, the gravel driveway is built on a permeable sub-base such as a MOT Type 3 and drastically cures any existing drainage issues and thus improving the gravel driveway drainage. The gravel driveway drainage is completely permeable.
