Median & Roundabout Landscaping

What This Service Involves

Medians and roundabouts demand landscapes that stay attractive while preserving driver sight lines and surviving harsh roadway conditions. Our crews select low, drought-tolerant, salt- and heat-resistant plantings that meet clear-zone and visibility standards for these high-exposure islands. All work is staged with lane closures, flaggers, and MUTCD-compliant traffic control to protect crews and motorists. Maintenance cycles keep plantings within sight-triangle limits so safety and appearance are sustained together.

Benefits

Sight-safe plant selection maintains driver visibility and MUTCD compliance; drought- and salt-tolerant species survive harsh median conditions; MUTCD traffic control protects crews and motorists during work; low-growth palettes reduce trimming frequency; recurring cycles sustain safety and appearance

Our Process

1) We assess sight triangles, clear zones, and roadway conditions; 2) A compliant planting or maintenance plan is developed with your engineers; 3) Crews install or maintain plantings under traffic control; 4) We schedule recurring cycles to keep growth within sight limits

What Affects the Cost

Number and size of medians and roundabouts; plant palette and hardscape specifications; traffic control and lane-closure requirements; irrigation access on islands; prevailing-wage labor for the roadway jurisdiction

Best Time of Year

Planting is scheduled for the mild spring and fall windows, while sight-line trimming continues through the active growing season.
