Fire Trail Construction & Maintenance
Protecting Property. Enabling Access. Supporting Emergency Response.
At Next Stage Civil, we specialise in the construction and maintenance of fire trails across New South Wales and Queensland. Whether for bushfire mitigation, rural property access, or emergency service support, our fire trail solutions are designed to meet compliance, improve access, and keep communities safe.
What Are Fire Trails?
Fire trails are strategically cleared and maintained access tracks that allow emergency services to quickly reach bushfire zones, create fire breaks, and manage land more effectively. They also serve as vital access ways for landowners and maintenance crews in remote or high-risk bushfire areas.
Our Services Include:
- New Fire Trail Construction
Clearing, grading, and shaping of compliant access tracks using the right machinery and environmental care. - Fire Trail Upgrades
Reconstructing or widening existing trails to meet safety and accessibility standards. - Ongoing Maintenance
Slashing, grading, and erosion control to ensure trails remain clear, safe, and functional year-round. - Drainage & Runoff Control
Installation of culverts and shaping to manage stormwater and prevent trail degradation. - Bushfire Preparedness Compliance
Trails built to meet NSW RFS & Emergency Services specifications
