I've started laying a new drive and have nearly completed the digging out. Because of work and family comitments it's just an hour or so some evenings and perhaps 1 full day at weekends, weather permitting. My question is: I'll be ready for the sub-base soon and plan to take a day off for the delivery and to carry out the compaction, does it matter how long I leave it before moving on to the next stage?

No - once the sub-base is in, you can leave it as long as you like before laying the paving, but try to keep the compacted sub-base reasonably clean and free of mud etc.

Thank you for the advice. I'll prpbably ask for more advice when ready.
Thank you again
