ENHANCING YOUR LANDSCAPE WITH
CORRIDORS AND TRAILS
Providing a safe passage between urban activity centers as well as offering a respite from the hustle and bustle of urban life, pedestrian corridors and trails give travelers on foot pathways designated especially for them. More than just sidewalks that run parallel to the road, pedestrian corridors separate vehicular and pedestrian traffic and create landscaped refuges for walkers, joggers, and bicyclists. Trails, by comparison, give hikers (and even bikers) access to nature parks, woodlands, and undeveloped areas, thereby offering relaxation and recreation to those who seek it.
At Lutjen, we work with your site’s natural terrain to create paths that balance the needs of the pedestrian with the natural beauty of the landscape. Our team of surveyors, landscape architects, and engineers incorporates pedestrian needs into your site’s overall plan, making walkways an integral part of the design, not an afterthought. This holistic approach enables us to deliver creative and aesthetically pleasing designs that provide a sensible interface with other modes of transportation.
Lutjen’s expertise with not only open space designs, but also pedestrian corridors associated with streets and major roadways ensures that the pedestrian experience is both pleasant and safe.
Services for pedestrian corridors and trails:
- Alignment studies and routing options.
- In-roadway and off-roadway bike lanes.
