Project Profile:
Westpark
Project Summary
City of Irvine’s policy on fire access and good sight distance at street corner intersections has been to landscape the corners with grass and palm trees. Fire trucks access the back of the homes or town homes by driving into the corner between the palms and estate walls. Curb cuts at both ends are visible from the street. Grasspave2 has been used exclusively by the City of Irvine for these applications and we are honored to be a long-term manufacturer and supplier since 1987. Thank you for the repeat business and your confidence in Grasspave2.
