GroundGuards returned to a familiar site to provide temporary car park ground protection for a repeat access requirement.
The site had previously used UltraTrack Pro to create a temporary parking area. On this return visit, GroundGuards installed 168 UltraTrack mats to form the same temporary car park layout, helping vehicles move across the site while reducing the risk of damage to the ground beneath.
Project overview
- Application: Temporary car park
- Product used: UltraTrack mats
- Quantity installed: 168 mats
- Previous installation: UltraTrack Pro used on the same site
- Purpose: To support vehicle movement and protect the surface below
The site challenge
Temporary parking can quickly place pressure on open ground, especially where vehicles need to move across the same area repeatedly.
Without suitable ground protection, car park areas can become damaged, uneven, muddy or difficult to reinstate after use. For this site, the requirement was clear: create a temporary parking area that could support vehicle movement while helping to protect the surface underneath.
Because GroundGuards had already worked on the site before, the team understood the application and the layout required.
The GroundGuards solution
GroundGuards supplied and installed 168 UltraTrack mats to recreate the temporary car park area.
UltraTrack provided a practical surface for vehicles to move across the site, helping spread vehicle load and reduce direct pressure on the ground. The mats formed a defined parking area that could be used for the duration of the requirement, then removed once the temporary access was no longer needed.
This made the solution suitable for a repeat temporary car park application where access, ground protection and a cleaner finish were all important.
How UltraTrack helped
UltraTrack mats are designed for temporary access and ground protection where vehicles need a stable route or working area over sensitive or exposed ground.
For this project, the mats helped by:
- forming a usable temporary parking surface
- supporting vehicle movement across the site
- reducing the risk of rutting and surface damage
- helping keep the temporary car park area more manageable
- allowing the area to be removed after use without committing to permanent works
Outcome and practical impact
The temporary parking area was installed using 168 UltraTrack mats, giving the site a clear vehicle access and parking surface while helping protect the ground below.
For projects with short-term parking requirements, this type of matting can offer a useful alternative to permanent surfacing, especially when the priority is to keep vehicles moving while limiting disruption to the site.
