I've recently extended a gutter to help drain water away from my house, but now I've run into an issue. The only way to access my backyard for mowing is by driving a mower over the area where this gutter runs across the lawn. I'm looking for gutters or alternative solutions that would be safe to drive a mower over without damaging anything. Any ideas or recommendations? Thanks!

One cool idea I used at my old house was a hinged gutter that could swing up and out of the way. You might be able to bungee it to the downspout for stability! That way, it allows the mower to pass without issue.
I found another version that doesn’t need bungee cords. It can swing in and out automatically. Not sure how effective it is, but it looks interesting! Check it out here: autospout.com.
