River Road Training Site CSMS

Landmark was retained by the project architect to develop the site civil bridging documents for the design-build Combined Support Maintenance Shop (CSMS) facility at the River Road Training Site (RRTS) in New Castle, Delaware. As part of the project, several facilities on site would be demolished and combined into one new 60,000+/- square foot structure, and the principal entrance to the facility would also require relocation.

Complex logistical coordination and extensive pre-planning will allow the site to remain in operation while the new facility is constructed to continue readiness operations for the Delaware Army National Guard mission.  The new facilities will produce a federal and state-compliant facility (UFC / DNREC / DelDOT).

Landmark provided planning, topographic, boundary and aerial surveys, site/civil design (30%), environmental/ecological habitat studies including wetland and forest delineations and bog turtle investigations, traffic evaluation, local land use approvals, and preparatory work for RFP issuance and selection of a design-build contractor. Construction-phase services will be provided to support the Design-Build Team.

Environmental Services:

Provided habitat studies including wetlands and forest delineations throughout the entire 200+ acre RRTS, including on the shooting range.

Conducted Phase 1 Bog Turtle investigations in four wetlands located on the RRTS in 2012. As part of a planned warehouse demolition and CSMS reconstruction projects, the Phase 1 Bog Turtle investigations were re-conducted in the four wetlands in the fall of 2017.
