Gateway Enhancement Project

Rock Springs, WY

Y2 managed the Rock Springs Gateway Enhancement Plan which focused on the five Interstate 80 interchanges within the city limits of Rock Springs, Wyoming. The Y2 team was responsible for illustrating a 30% design and setting goals and a vision for the landscape and aesthetics along the five interchanges. The guide synthesized historic, current, and future conditions into a comprehensive guide to improve the visual appearance of the five \ interstate exchanges within the City of Rock Springs.

Y2 partnered with Cairn Landscape Architects to prepare the plan, which included the existing conditions analysis and needs assessments, area of opportunities diagrams, concept designs, and landscape and aesthetic recommendations. The project identified the major design themes and materials to be used in landscape and aesthetic treatments, recommended the level of treatment to be applied, and provided a broad opinion of probable treatments costs for future funding possibilities.
