Options for running cable to garage

Hi,

Looking at how to run a supply from a customer's CU to garage (distance from house to garage approx. 3-4ft. A path separates the two. The customer doesn't want the path being dug up and SWA being laid beneath, neither do they wish for the cable to be overhead...

I'm thinking of disc-cutting a section of path and inserting a concrete (or similar) cable trough - see CONCRETE CABLE TROUGH, CABLE TROUGHING, DUCT, ANDERTON CONCRETE CABLE TROUGHS, CABLE DUCT - https://www.cablejoints.co.uk/power-products/cable-trough-concrete for an idea (not actual, I suspect ;-)) and then using a cable such as
H07RN-F Cable | Eland Cables - https://www.elandcables.com/cables/h07rn-f-bs-en-50525-2-21-flexible-rubber-cable#range that can be used in permanently wet environments. Alternatively, a drainage channel with clear markings at at either end specifying the use (although I'm not so keen on this).

I'm starting to run out of ideas...

Thoughts appreciated.
