| A draft
Visual Quality Manual (VQM) was distributed to the stakeholders
for comments in December 2005. Comments are currently being
resolved and a final VQM is anticipated in December 2006.
A final Open House is anticipated in January 2007 |
| Following
the Visual Quality Open Houses, held in September 2005,
the St. Croix Visual Quality Review Committee (VQRC)
and Project Team (Wisconsin DOT, Minnesota DOT and Consultant
Team) have enthusiastically chosen the "Organic" architectural
bridge concept for further development. This concept successfully
balances engineering and functional criteria of cost, maintenance
and construction means with visual, aesthetic and architectural
project criteria. Of the three concepts presented at the mid-September
Open Houses, the public also preferred this concept. Working
with the VQRC, the Project Team will continue to move forward
with further architectural and engineering refinement of the "Organic" concept. |
