I have a path about 1m wide and 20m long. All overgrown and I need to clear.
What is easiest option, I was thinking strim back, clear, weed membrane then mulch, i.e. suffocation. That was mainly to let me not bother digging.
Will that work? Other ideas? Would prefer to stay clear of dumping loads of weedkiller - proximity to flowerbeds, lawn etc.
Burn it.
Burn it.
We could stand at the side with pitchforks when you do...
Flame thrower, or rock salt, and water it
Agent Orange*
*May have some truly horrific side effects.

Yeah man, bun up dat weed ๐ put some bob on when you do though or its not cool (marley, not geldof or monkhouse).
Newspaper is interesting - and I can get hold of lots of cardboard which they seem to say works as well...
+1 for Rock Salt / Dish washer salt (you'll never grow anything else there again)
Glyphosate would cause no ill effects to the other plants in your garden, unless you spray it on them as well. Salt will! I recon your origional plan is pretty much spot on!!
I wonder if stone/gravel would be better on top of the weed membrane rather than mulch?
