Design driveway with grass pavers

Hello dear community,

I had a shed next to my house demolished. The driveway to the property is supposed to be created there. The demolition has been carried out so far and I now have a stable subsoil.

The height difference is about 105cm over 10 meters with a width of 3 meters.

My idea: I wanted to fill the "hole" with soil (I have about 200m³ in the garden), compact it, then lay honeycomb grids on top and sow grass, so that I have a green driveway. I only wanted to pave the parallel running path.

Is the compaction of the soil (topsoil) sufficient to lay the grids? The stability will come with the grass growth.

Thanks for your feedback!

We had a consultation from a company that creates these honeycomb grids; we were told that you absolutely must lay gravel (or was it crushed stone?) underneath first.

I will try it with the soil I have on site. Compact gradually and then lay the slabs and sow grass.

In the garden, I was also able to fill peat holes with it and safely drive over them with a 16-ton excavator after the grass was on it.

looks ugly after a short time without proper care (fertilizing, mowing, watering) and requires a lot of work if it is to look good. I would rather make a gravel driveway if you don't want to pave.

Best regards
Sabine

I have never seen good grass pavers. Only in the catalog.

Gravel is beautiful. It crunches underfoot and feels like Schlossallee. Only Schneefeg3n is stupid. But it hardly snows here, and the little bit of salt I clean away.
