Parking Lots,
Permeable
This property was a brownfield site that both Rhode Island Public Transit Authority and RGB Architects had initiated cleanup for planned reuse. Post-development site runoff could not exceed pre-development volume and as such Unilock recommended Eco-Optilocâ„¢ pavers for both permeability and superior strength under heavy bus loading. Setting a precedent for deign, function and permeability.
Over 46,500 square feet of pavers was used for the project. The site allows for improved vehicular circulation and is utilized by buses and staff and public parking. In addition to the permeable pavers, bioswales were also incorporated.
