A track section adapted to be linked to a plurality of similar track sections to form a track belt for mounting around the outer periphery of vehicle tyres, wherein the track section comprises: - an elongated crossbar having a tyre-facing inner side and a ground engageable outer side opposite to the inner side; - a first lateral support member mounted to the crossbar at first end section thereof; and - a second lateral support member mounted to the crossbar at an opposite second end section thereof, wherein the first and second lateral support members protrude on the inner side of the crossbar and are spaced apart to allow a tyre to be received between the first and second lateral support members with the crossbar extending across and being in contact with the envelope surface of the tyre, the crossbar is lattice-like and is formed by two or more flat, upright and elongated crossbar elements and two or more connecting elements , wherein each crossbar element has a longitudinal inner edge on the inner side of the crossbar and a longitudinal outer edge on the outer side of the crossbar; the crossbar elements extend in parallel with each other in the longitudinal direction of the crossbar and are spaced apart in the cross-direction of the crossbar, wherein empty spaces are provided between the crossbar elements ; the connecting elements are arranged at a distance from each other in the longitudinal direction of the crossbar , wherein each connecting element extends across and is fixed to the crossbar elements in order to act as a spacer between the crossbar elements; and being characterized in that each connecting element is configured to project from the crossbar elements on the outer side of the crossbar . - an elongated crossbar having a tyre-facing inner side and a ground engageable outer side opposite to the inner side; - a first lateral support member mounted to the crossbar at first end section thereof; and - a second lateral support member mounted to the crossbar at an opposite second end section thereof, wherein the first and second lateral support members protrude on the inner side of the crossbar and are spaced apart to allow a tyre to be received between the first and second lateral support members with the crossbar extending across and being in contact with the envelope surface of the tyre, the crossbar is lattice-like and is formed by two or more flat, upright and elongated crossbar elements and two or more connecting elements , wherein each crossbar element has a longitudinal inner edge on the inner side of the crossbar and a longitudinal outer edge on the outer side of the crossbar; the crossbar elements extend in parallel with each other in the longitudinal direction of the crossbar and are spaced apart in the cross-direction of the crossbar, wherein empty spaces are provided between the crossbar elements ; the connecting elements are arranged at a distance from each other in the longitudinal direction of the crossbar , wherein each connecting element extends across and is fixed to the crossbar elements in order to act as a spacer between the crossbar elements; and being characterized in that each connecting element is configured to project from the crossbar elements on the outer side of the crossbar . <EOS>
