Dixieanne Avenue Green Street Plan
City of Sacramento, Sacramento, California
MIG led a team of landscape architects and civil engineers to design and create construction documents for the first Green Street in Sacramento for a five block stretch of Dixieanne Avenue. A key element of the design is a new storm drainage system beneath a strip of trees, shrubs and grass, allowing for most stormwater to be captured, reducing peak flows and cleansing runoff. Construction was completed in September 2009 and has earned the Project of the Year award for the City of Sacramento. MIG’s involvement in the construction document stage ensured that the design guidelines of the Dixieanne Avenue streetscape that was developed by MIG during the Swanston Light Rail Station Transit Village Specific Plan was carried through into the construction documents.
