Infrastructure

Landscape is an integral part of infrastructure.

Roads, transport corridors, bikeways, drainage systems and utilities interact with communities, waterways, vegetation and public spaces.

Orterra works with engineers, government agencies and multidisciplinary teams to integrate landscape and environmental outcomes into complex infrastructure projects.

Landscape as Infrastructure

We Work Across

  • Road Corridors
  • Transport Infrastructure
  • Bikeways
  • Pedestrian Connections
  • Drainage Corridors
  • Detention Basins
  • Utilities
  • Rehabilitation and Revegetation

Working Within Complex Constraints

Infrastructure projects require landscape architecture to respond to engineering requirements, safety, visibility, services, maintenance access, flooding, erosion, ecology and long term asset management.

Our approach is practical and coordinated. We work closely with engineering teams to ensure landscape solutions support the wider infrastructure outcome.

Rehabilitation and Revegetation

Infrastructure projects frequently create opportunities to restore disturbed landscapes and strengthen ecological systems.

We develop planting and rehabilitation strategies appropriate to site conditions, maintenance requirements and environmental objectives.
