Guidelines
Color and texture
Substantial landscaping that requires minimal maintenance
Leave areas for planting of annuals by local entities
Signage designed in coordination with local entities to clearly direct visitors
An attractive, safe, uncluttered, underpass environment
Design minimizes the accumulation of litter
Area Advisory Teams representing local residents/businesses have been involved since early stages of project development
Walsh DBT recently met twice with each AAT regarding specific options
Final recommendations to be approved by Bi-State Management Team
