Just thought I would post some pics of the new 500 ft. road we installed from the gates to where the new house will go. I laid down 12 ft wide geotextile fabric first, then followed by #2 base material.

The fabric was done on Thursday, road base installed/compacted on Friday, and today it got a workout from 10 concrete trucks for the new house foundation pour. It took a beating, but held up very well, needing only minor repair of ruts. I think the key was that fabric to keep any ground water from pumping up from the soil as the heavy leads were encountered.
This is looking from the gates to the barn and soon to be house.
