Ryan was awarded the restoration of Old Tamiami Trail Road portion where we have been contracted to remove 5.5 miles of the existing roadbed that has acted as a barrier blocking the natural sheet flow of freshwater South into the Everglades National Park. This project encompasses several elements that will include the clearing and grubbing of 59.8 acres, installation of 29,000 linear feet of erosion and sediment control measures, turbidity curtain and monitoring, identifying, and monitoring invasive/exotic plant species as well as special-status species. We will build temporary access roads, install rip rap boulders at various entrances, remove existing vegetation and stumps and dispose of it all off-site. We will also remove and dispose of asphaltic roadway pavement off-site, excavate the roadbed material back to its original natural elevation, and permanently place the excavated material along the L-67 Extension.

The project will require maintenance of traffic for the modern Tamiami Trail as well as design and implementation/installation of supplementary erosion and sediment control measures. The final step will be to seed and mulch over 100,000 square yards.
