I want to block pave the front of our children's day nursery.
The drive takes a lot of traffic from cars but no HGVs, but perhaps the occasional 3.5t vehicle. Would a construction of
150mm crush and run
50mm sand
50mm blocks
be suitable or if not what would a suitable construction be.
Thanks for your help

sounds ok, you would probably be better on the safe side by using thicker blocks, as the area is highly used with cars.

Thanks for your reply - I think maybe I will use 60mm blocks then.

Does that mean it was a daft question?
If so which was the daft bit (hopefully not all of it)?
