Ground Protection That Keeps Rail Projects Moving

Why Ground Protection Matters On Rail & Trackside Works

Rail projects often run on tight possessions and short work windows. Access routes must carry heavy machinery, while the ground, drainage and rail assets around the line stay protected. Wet weather or soft verges can quickly break down tracks, delay works and increase risk for crews.

GroundGuards Global supports rail contractors, infrastructure owners, rental fleets and distributors who need dependable mat systems to keep rail works safe, efficient and on schedule.

Secure Access Along The Line

Temporary Roadways For Rail Projects

Reaching work sites often means running access routes along embankments, through fields or across soft verges. Bare ground can become rutted and unsafe, especially under repeated machine movements. Using mats for temporary roadways and haul routes helps you:

  • Keep machinery and deliveries moving in wet or unstable conditions
  • Maintain safe, predictable access to worksites along the route
  • Reduce rutting, reinstatement work and disruption for neighbours and landowners

Shield Sensitive Zones And Meet Compliance Goals

Stable Compounds & Work Areas

Rail compounds, RRAPs and work areas must support concentrated loads from machinery, materials and cabins while protecting underlying services and drainage. Uneven or soft ground makes operations slower and less safe. Mat based compounds and bases help you:

  • Provide stable standing for machinery, cabins, welfare and material stacks
  • Keep compounds usable in poor weather and heavy use
  • Reduce damage to verges, drainage routes and buried services

Protect Structures And Finished Surfaces

Protect Crossings, Platforms & Yards

Many rail works run over level crossings, platforms, depots or hard surfaces that still need protection from machinery. Direct trafficking can cause cracking, spalling and expensive reinstatement. Using mats for hard surface protection helps you:

  • Shield crossings, platforms and yards during works and access movements
  • Spread loads from heavy machinery over a wider area
  • Reduce reinstatement costs and handback delays at the end of possessions

Fast, Dependable Access

Flexible Solutions For Planned Works & Emergencies

Rail maintenance and emergency response often need rapid access over soft verges, fields and drainage corridors. Repeated traffic without protection can cause ground failure, environmental issues and access problems for future works. Using mats for emergency and maintenance access helps you:

  • Reach difficult locations quickly in poor weather or at short notice
  • Support repeated visits for inspections, maintenance and repairs
  • Limit ongoing damage to sensitive embankments, drainage and habitats
