Peaks to Plains Trail:
Clear Creek Canyon Segment
Jefferson/Clear Creek Counties,
Colorado
Muller Engineering Co.
Lakewood, Colorado
Outdoor enthusiasts can now enjoy
unprecedented recreational access to Clear
Creek Canyon with completion of a 3-mile
segment of a planned 15-mile multi-use trail
through the rugged terrain from Golden to
Idaho Springs, Colorado. Sustainable design
was a priority in creating the 10-foot-wide
concrete trail, preserving existing large trees,
riparian vegetation and rock outcroppings
while removing debris and eroded areas
from past mining operations. Artistic native
rock, colored concrete and weathered steel
allow the trail to blend with natural canyon
colors. A major step toward the proposed
65-mile Peaks to Plains Trail, the new trail
accomplishes planners' goal to "complement
the Canyon terrain so well that users feel like
the trail has always been there."
Maggie Daley Park Reconstruction
Chicago, Illinois
Stantec & Infrastructure Engineering
Chicago, Illinois
This world-class 20-acre park features an eye-catching
quarter-mile-long "ice ribbon" for skating. The ice ribbon
winds through the park, rising and falling with the
landscape. It can accommodate up to 700 skaters during the
winter and converts to a walking/jogging trail during
warmer months. The park also includes two 40-foot-tall
rock climbing structures, which also conceal the ice ribbon's
refrigeration system, and a 3-acre play garden for children
featuring a 125-foot-long suspension bridge. The project
team overcame the challenge of locating the park atop an
existing underground parking garage by incorporating ecofriendly, lightweight geofoam fill to minimize loads.
Hydrothermal Processing Pilot System
Greenwood Village, Colorado
Merrick & Co., Greenwood Village, Colorado
This pilot project proved that a hydrothermal processing system can be used to transform
wet biomass waste into a valuable fuel at a useful scale. Hydrothermal processing uses
water, high heat and high pressure to transform hydrocarbon-rich material-in this test
case, algae-into bio-crude oil and natural gas. While the technology has been
successfully tested in laboratories, this project was the first time a pilot-scale of the
processing system was successfully built, tested and commissioned. Currently now in
operation in India, the pilot-scale system produces approximately 1,000 liters of fuel per
day-a much higher quantity than any previous demonstration of the technology and an
indicator of its potential for other, larger applications.
