Colored <br />concrete of a beige/ <br />brown color is used in <br />the medians, truck apron <br />banding, and as a splash <br />ribbon in the central <br />landscape area. Pockets <br />of a low maintenance <br />turf are bounded by <br />bands of river rock that <br />lead to the center of <br />the roundabout. In the <br />center granite boulders <br />are placed around a mix <br />of shrubs, perennials, <br />and 3 ornamental trees. <br /> At primary and <br />secondary gateway <br />entrances, a sculptural <br />element will take the <br />place of the ornamental <br />trees in the center of <br />the roundabout. The <br />sculptural element will <br />welcome users to the <br />City and help orient <br />users to their location <br />within the area.
