I-215 Landscape Design & Implementation

Landmark Design prepared planning and construction documents for 8.7 miles of urban highway in the metropolitan Salt Lake Valley. The project involved a thorough analysis and mapping of the existing site conditions, including soils, vegetation, slope, and hydrology through diverse environmental conditions including riparian environments, bottomlands and benches, urban and semi-urban conditions.  It included completion of 404 Permit documents and coordination with the Corps of Engineers and the Division of Wildlife Resources in the design and construction of a small water body. The project team conducted public meetings and gathered public input in the landscape design, prepared construction documents, conducted a monitoring and evaluation study of the revegetation project, and prepared a maintenance manual for the project. 

The plan was based on a commitment to native landscapes, which incorporate revegetation and land reclamation methods including the use of water conserving native and hardy plant materials, water harvesting planting techniques, and site preparation techniques which reduce site disturbances, competition, and the need for additional erosion control.
