Vista Village Redevelopment Flood Control Structures, Vista, CA

RBF Consulting (RBF) provided planning and final engineering for an ambitious redevelopment project which encompasses approximately 35 acres of existing commercial and industrial parcels adjacent to the main street downtown area. The Vista Village Project includes the development of a destination commercial and entertainment center with shops, restaurants, and theaters, along with a regional transit center. The focus of the downtown redevelopment project is the Creek Walk, traversing through the spine of the project which replaces a 1951 SCS concrete flood control channel, and incorporated the preservation of a historic adobe building. Structural design for this project included two new concrete bridges, a steel truss pedestrian bridge, four cell (16’ x 16’ cells) concrete box culverts and concrete retaining walls along the creek.
