Question

I need to pave my driveway for safety (prevent slipping on slope). I would like to do it as enviromentally friendly as possible. Best way?

Location is Seattle. Currently there is no paving, cement, or asphalt. Just hard rock. Also how would I locate a contractor able to do the work?

Concrete is about as green as it gets. Make sure the finish is a broomed finish to resist slipping.
