St Columbas, Kilmacolm: ramp installation.
The job
Ramp installation at St Columbas. A ramp has to suit the people who’ll use it, so levels, gradients and the way it meets the surrounding surface are set out before anything is laid. The base is built up in compacted layers, edges are held with kerbs, and the finished surface is chosen for grip. Where a site is in daily use, we keep the working area tight and a safe route open past it.
