- W653819373 abstract "Laguna Canyon Road in Orange County, California, has been considered one of the country's most environmentally-sensitive roadways since its 2006 improvement. This article describes how a collaborative effort was successful in overcoming significant opposition to the improvement project. The existing, winding two-lane rural road was originally aligned at the bottom of the canyon. This roadway was challenged with increased traffic demand and was also subject to frequent closures caused by flooding. Engineers wanted to widen the roadway, straighten the curved alignment, elevate the roadway above the 100-year floodplain, and provide a median area to separate travel lanes. However, these roadway improvements would have had a significant negative impact on the environment. A committee of concerned stakeholders worked in close collaboration with the engineering team to create a project that improved roadway alignment and traffic flow while employing true environmental engineering and sustainable elements. The new alignment relocated the road from the bottom of the canyon to the adjacent, less environmentally sensitive hillside areas. A new drainage system of stormwater basins eliminated flooding problems and bio-swales were included to treat roadway runoff. Although the roadway was widened to a four-lane highway, the final alignment maintained the aesthetic feeling of the old roadway through the addition of a wide, naturally vegetated median." @default.
