Construction Access with Steel Plates

We built a construction access with steel plates across this stormwater swale. Then we laid compost socks and straw wattles along side of the eco blocks placed along the edges.

The adjacent parking lot drains into the swale and must be protected from dirty construction stormwater discharges.

Tire Wash Fail Part 2

Photo: David Jenkins

I took this photo of same project from a few posts ago, but at a different angle.

If this was my project, I would move the tire wash closer to the site exit, place asphalt treated base over the rock, and place construction fence or eco-blocks along the sides to prevent vehicles from dragging mud onto the exit.
