ADDITIONAL RELEVANT PROJECT EXPERIENCE River Park and Trail System, Santa Clarita, California The DEA project team worked with the city of Santa Clarita on the master plan of a 12 -acre River Park adjacent to the Santa Clara River. The park is passive in nature and provides native planting areas with trails and equestrian routes, a custom water feature which acts as a filtration system for allowing clean water discharge into the river, picnic areas, parking, a restroom /nature center, and children's play areas. Active sports areas were considered during the conceptual planning phases; however, it was the City's desire to keep the park rustic in character. DEA was responsible for trail feasibility studies, design and cost estimates in addition to documentation for easements related to the trail. Southern Avenue Bike Trail and Staging Area, South Cate, DEA was selected by the city of South Gate to provide professional design services for this bike trail project which provides a link to the Los Angeles River Bike Trail Program. Initially, DEA researched and collected all pertinent information along the corridor and staging area site. DEA then performed a topographic surrey of the site and prepared base maps. DEA landscape architects prepared two conceptual plans for the staging area to be displayed for public comment. Elements of the staging area include an informational kiosk, arbor structure, bicycle racks, drinking fountains, benches, trash receptacles, outdoor lighting, and landscaping. DEA also provided pavement signing and striping plans for the bike trail, street improvement plans, grading and drainage plans, hardscape and site furnishing plans, a planting plan, irrigation plan, construction details, technical specifications and a final cost estimate. California Santa Clarita River Trails Phase 11 and III, Santa Clarita, California DEA provided plans, specifications, and construction cost estimates for the Santa Clara River trail projects for the City of Santa Clarita, located north of Los Angeles. The trail serves as a multi -modal recreation trail for commuter bicyclists, pedestrians, and equestrian users. For the most part, the trail consists of a 16- foot -wide surface, providing two five -foot lanes of travel for bicyclists, a four - foot -wide pedestrian path, and one -foot shoulders for fencing and buffer purposes. The equestrian trail is signed and uses "post -to- post" travel through the river area, occasionally traveling parallel to the bicycle - pedestrian trail. Kern River Specific Trails Plan and BIR, Kern County, California DEA worked with the Kern County Planning Department on the development of a comprehensive multi -use trails master plan for a 15 -mile- long segment of trail along the Kern River. The project also involved the preparation of a program EIR. The westerly project limits begin in Bakersfield and continue easterly to the mouth of the canyon en route to Lake Isabella. The design team worked closely with special interest groups such as the equestrians and bicyclists in a'community workshop' forum to ensure successful consensus building. 25L -29 15 D61P VANSANDASSOCIATES,INC.
