Construction of
Bowling Green

Work Involved

• Area of works is 25.4m x 35.6m.
• Sub-base drainage was installed.
• Concrete sub-base and ditch walls were constructed.
• We supplied and installed a layer of pea gravel, levelled over the concrete base to a minimum depth of 100mm in the centre and 190mm at the extremities. The gravel used was uncrushed natural gravel 5-7 mm, washed free of fines. (300t required in total).
• The aggregate layer was installed using our highly specialised and purpose built, laser operated equipment. The aggregate was laser levelled to mirror the finished surface grade.
• Turf Drain Australia also supplied and installed the growing medium, which was an 80/20 sand/soil blend (360t required in total).
• The growing medium was also installed using specialised and purpose built equipment that is laser guided and operated.
• Turf Drain also supplied and installed 125lm of plinth board. This was installed after the turf grass had established. Coarse ditch sand was installed in the ditch areas.
• We then supplied and installed the ditch wall synthetic grass.
• Our team then supplied the chaff, which we spread, rolled and watered.
• The establishment and maintenance of the bowling green was completed by ARV.
