1.4.12 - Riverbank Restoration + New Access
This sub area will likely include enhancing the space between the paved trail and the
water's edge. VHB will examine potential improvements along the river's edge to enhance
aesthetics, improve visibility and access to the river, conduct bank stabilization, and
potentially treat stormwater. Thera may also be opportunities for small overlooks, and
selected locations for display of public art, signage and lighting. The City is currently
addressing the invasives problem in advance of this project, but there may be
opporiunities to modify the ground cover on the banks to mitigate invasives long term.
VHB will rely on guidance from HL Turner on floodplain elevations and restrictions on
filling,
Product: Include up to twa (2) design aliernatives including plans, tynical cross sections,
sketches and one (1) perspective as appropriate tc define the proposed improvements.

1.4.13- ADA Accessible Ramp to Cotton Transfer Bridge
An ADA accessible bike/pedesirian ramp will be developed to connect the ground level
multiuse path up to the Cotton Transfer pedestrian bridge. The intent will be to utilize
similar design elements as the existing ADA ramp on the opposite side of the river. The
work will be done with consideration for avoiding impacts to the floodplain and tloodway.
VHB will complete the cesign with input from Halvorson and will coordinate with Lumen
Design Studio and Fitzemeyer & Tocci for lighting the structure. This project component
may be a good candidate for an accelerated schedule and “early success" assuming
environmental permitting will not hold it back.
Produci: Provide up to two (2) design alternatives including pians, sections and sketches as
appropriate to define the proposed improvements.
