PSP, PAP or the Russian equivalent.

It's all surplus.

But you don't have that big an area. 12 x 8 is pretty small - deck size. I would think some pressure treated 4x4s used as sleepers - long metal drift pins hammered into the roadway to hold them in place. Some more 4x4s as stringers and then 2x's as decking. If you have access to a scrap lumber pile somewhere it should be pretty inexpensive.

Redneck decking? I've seen bags of quickcrete laid out where folks want them and then hosed down. Disclaimer - it does not mix well or set up well and crumbles to worse than gravel.

But if your existing roadway is firm - since you have a stream - you can put some 4x4s along the edge of the roadway, take the same bags of cement, hand mix them and pour them between the 4x4s. Some old wire fencing would be a nice addition in the middle of the cement.

All depends on how much you want to spend - or what you have at hand or scrap in the local area.
