So the other day I purchased some military surplus culverts. They come in two halves and are connected together on site. This allows for easy transportation/installation. So as I was thinking about what I was going to do with all of it amd I came up with an idea! Please feel free to poke holes in my idea.
We have a road on our property that is unimproved (dirt/sand) and is pretty steep in one area. When it rains the water gets moving quickly down the road and washes/erodes it away.
What if I placed the 1/2 pieces of culvert on an angle across the road and filled it with pea gravel? That would catch the water as it begins to flow down the road and would divert it off to the side. I could do this at maybe three or four locations along the 1200' drive. What do yall think? Am I wasting my time?
