HOW WE HELPED
McCormick Taylor designed a 10-foot-wide multiuse path totaling 2,000 linear feet circling athletic fields at the Eastampton Community School. The trail provides much needed connections to Cliver Park multiuse trail, pedestrian circulation routes at Eastampton Community School, and Veteran’s Memorial Park trails. The new trail added approximately 0.50 acres of new impervious surface and disturbed 1.25 acres. Therefore, the project was qualified as a “major development” under N.J.A.C. 7:8-1.2. Three Stone Infiltration Trench BMPs were designed along the trail for controlling stormwater runoff quantity and groundwater recharge. The new impervious area consists of a paved bicycle and pedestrian trail, which does not require treatment for removal of Total Suspended Solids.
In addition to the trail improvements, McCormick Taylor designed ADA improvements for 28 existing non-compliant ADA Curb Ramps along pedestrian walkways between Knightsbridge Road and the Eastampton Community School, improved various segments of damaged or deteriorated sidewalk throughout the project area, and improved fiber optic junction boxes at curb ramp locations to achieve compliant slopes. There is also new pedestrian signage and striping improvements at each of the existing intersection crossings. Bicycle safe inlet grates and NJPDES compliant curb pieces were installed at inlets in project limits.
