Caltrans Interchange Planting

Caltrans Interchange Planting
Project Information
Client Caltrans
Type Native plant revegetation project
Size 30 acres
Location Several I-80 Highway Interchanges
Status Completed June 2009

The YOLO RCD worked with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to establish native plants at several interstate interchanges in the County. The plantings were designed to provide an aesthetically pleasing view of native plantings, require minimal maintenance, and survive our long-hot summers. The project was designed to allow Caltrans Landscape Maintenance personnel to easily mow between planted rows, even after the Yolo County RCD hands over the project in June 2009.
