Pathways and shared paths
Footpaths, shared paths, boardwalks and accessible routes.
Open Spaces Collective builds pathways for public land: concrete and asphalt shared paths, footpaths, decomposed granite and gravel trails, boardwalks, and accessible routes with compliant grades, landings and kerb ramps.
Paths are the part everyone uses
A path is the most used and most scrutinised piece of any open space. It has to drain, it has to stay flat, and it has to meet accessibility requirements that are measured to the millimetre.
Built around what is already there
Most path work happens in parks that stay open and next to trees that must survive. We stage the work to keep the public moving safely, and we build around tree protection zones rather than through them.
Where lighting is part of the scope, conduit and footings go in with the path, not after it.
Common questions
Do you build shared paths for councils?
Yes. We build concrete and asphalt shared paths, footpaths and connections for councils and state agencies, including kerb ramps, line marking and tactile indicators.
Can paths be built while a park stays open?
Usually. We stage path works with fenced work zones and marked detours so the public can keep using the park, and we program noisy work around the site’s busiest hours.
Have a site, a scope or a closing date?
Send us what you have. We will tell you straight whether it suits us, and how we would staff and train on it.
