Driveway gravel getting onto pathway

    I have removed my concrete driveway & lawn and laid gravel and approx 2m of bricks between the gravel end point and public pathway.
    All looks well etc.
    My issue is the gravel is been brought out (by the car tyres) to the paving area and public pathway and if not swept back, onto the roadway.
    Is there any device that will retain the gravel to where it should be?

    If you concrete over it, that usually keeps it in.

    Regular application of sweeping brush will keep things in order.

    You could put down a gravel stabilising grid in the last section before the bricks.

    What sort of gravel do you have? Size and shape. Larger and angular shifts less than small and round. So maybe change the mix near the end.
