    Railway sleepers are rotting and dangerously slippy.

    Are there any suggestions as to how to deal with the areas of rot - see picture attached?

    Also any recommendation on how to treat to prevent repeat or spread??

    Thanks in advance

    Tack chicken wire to the surface to stop slippyness.

    Avoid contact with soil to reduce rot. Treat with creosote.
