The works involved the construction of a 2m wide footpath on the road verge of the A92 at Dunnottar Castle. The aim was to connect two rural bus stops with no paths, to a route to Dunnottar Castle, increasing the safety of users and to help encourage use of public transport to visit this tourist attraction. This project involved:
The logistical challenges of traffic management, material deliveries and construction on a top of a steep embankment were over come through good communication and forward planning by experienced staff. CRC’s site and project manager particularly contributed to the success greatly by coordinating multiple subcontractors and ensuring the various specification requirements of the VRS barriers and Highway reinstatement were adhered to.
There were no instances of environmental damage or other accidents or incidents.
How can we support your next project?
Tarland Trails initially began in 2016 as a project to develop skills focused trails and pump track. CRC were principal contractor and worked with designer Cycletherapy for this phase of the trails.
After a small section of rock dislodged, we were approached to consult on a solution to stabilise the rock on the bank of the Clunie Water, adjacent to the Fife Arms Hotel, Braemar.
This project was to create a community-driven natural trail focused on less experienced riders. We wanted to create a trail with a low entry barrier but also a trail experienced riders could shred.
We work in sensitive environments to protect communities and habitats, allowing people to access nature in a sympathetic way.
Our skilled team has the expertise to complete a range of civil works for different sectors and purposes, while reducing environmental impact.
From concept to reality, we design and construct mountain biking trails and footpaths that are unique to their location and complement the natural landscape.
