    depends what you condsider cheaper....

    if done PROPERLY i'd probably think bitumen is going to be the cheapest. but I think it terms of longevity concrete will out perform the lot and so may work out "cheaper"




    if you want it really cheap
    rip up the pavers
    get the area graded/flattened
    get a whole bunch of this stuff (or a cheaper equivilant) https://www.bunnings.com.au/strol-0-...avers_p0215399
