GREEN MEDIAN DESIGN C-1 COMMUTER PARKING LOT

PROBLEM STATEMENT This site suffers primarily from extreme erosion of the substrate under and around the bus stop platform and sparse native vegetation in the median. Poor storm water management and use of the bus stop and median by students perpetuate these problems.

MAIN POINTS Inspiration: Downtown Aiken Greenways Similarities Differences Main targets: erosion and soil exposure/stability Main components of my proposal: Redesign the existing bus stop Recontour the terrain Create a bioswale Use native vegetation

BIOSWALE DIAGRAM Source: ftp://ftp-fc.sc.egov.usda.gov/MT/www/technical/water/Bioswale.pdf

METHODS AND MATERIALS Item NameEstimated CostSource Pervious Pavement$9.50 per square foot (includes excavation, installation, materials, and labor) Bus Stop Bench$ for one six foot benchwww.teakwickerandmore.com Retaining Wall$15-30 per square foot for materials and labor of an interlocking block wall Stairs$500.00www.answers.yahoo.com Earth Moving$10,000.00My best judgment Nursery plants$40.00 per shrub, $30 per grassTrees.naturehills.com Cuts in Curb$500.00www.answers.yahoo.com Permits and Legal Fees$50,000.00My best judgment Maintenance/MonitoringPerformed by Clemson students and university facilities staff Students  volunteer (maybe a project that could be taken on by and SEA focus group, a CI group, or landscape architecture students) Staff  $8.00 per hour

BENEFITS TO CAMPUS With the continued budget cuts facing the university, projects with long lasting benefits should be adopted. By implementing such a public and visible project, Clemson can show its university community that it is serious about making big changes to the way projects are prioritized and initiated at Clemson. If implemented, this project could certainly serve as a pilot study for other similar projects on campus.
