Drainage Cleaning

Why This Matters Mountain road drainage depends on a clear ditch. Runoff carries silt that gradually chokes the channel; once clogged, water runs parallel to the road instead of into the ditch, saturating the shoulder and undercutting the pavement edge. The fix is shoulder blading to restore inward slope, together with removing the accumulated silt so the ditch flows again. Shoulder blading and silt removal are the most cost-effective way to prevent erosion, edge loss, and base failures.
