Road Mats
My wife and I have some very close friends who own 100 acres of property near a beautiful lake. A little over 10 acres of the parcel is actual lakefront property. The lake is at the opposite end of the property from the main road and their house. A large portion of the property between their home and the lake is protected wetlands. And, herein lies the problem.
Since the time that our friends bought this property and constructed their home, they have dreamed of building a boathouse at the edge of the lake. While money has never been a limiting factor, the logistics of moving the construction materials and heavy equipment to the desired building site has been. The problem they needed to solve was how to accomplish this task without causing irreversible damage to the delicate wetlands.
After a year of research and planning, they have found the solution in a product from TerraPro. While already well-known for their rig mats, the solution for this project is their Terra Pro Road Mats temporary roadway.
The Terra Pro Road Mats are perfect for this job, as one of the main goals is to protect the wetlands. These mats are very lightweight, easy to assemble, and capable of spanning short distances of open and flowing water.
The fact that the Terra Pro mats are much easier on the environment than competing products just sealed the deal.
Our friends are looking forward to completing their dream boathouse, and we’re looking forward to enjoying the finished product with them.
