Blossom Hill Park Trail Renovation

HMH worked with the Town of Los Gatos to replace pavement and increase accessibility along a 1/3 mile long trail through the heart of Blossom Hill Park. The work was performed in conjunction with a parallel pathway lighting project to increase the safety and use of the trail.

Completed on an accelerated schedule, HMH met early with Town’s engineers to walk the site and visualize proposed improvements.  Though a multidisciplinary approach, HMH provided design services addressing compliance with the handicap accessibility and flooding concerns, while preserving existing trees and upgrading park amenities. With wider pathways meeting federal guidelines, the parks bathrooms, tennis courts and concession stand can now be accessed by the entire community.
