Project Details: NM FTNP/NPS BAND 910(1) Tsankawi and Frey Parking Lots:

Location: Bandelier National Monument

County: Los Alamos and Santa Fe counties

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The project is to expand/construct new parking lots at the Bandelier National Monument at two locations: Tsankawi (san-KAH-wee) unit and Frey trailhead at Juniper Campground. The first proposed project is to construct a 35,200 square foot (SF) parking lot to provide visitor and shuttle parking at the Tsankawi unit, located at the intersection of East Jemez Drive and New Mexico Highway 4 (NM-4). The second proposed project is the expansion of the Frey Trailhead parking lot at Juniper Campground by constructing approximately 40 additional parking spaces.

SCOPE OF THE WORK:

The proposed Tsankawi parking lot would consist of 38 car spaces, 2 handicap spaces, 3 bus/RV parking spaces and a shuttle stop. The planned parking lot would have an asphalt surface with 1566 LF of stone curbing and 65 LF of sidewalk. Construction of the parking lot will also disturb an area approximately 30 feet beyond the parking lot perimeter to allow construction equipment to maneuver, drainage swales to build, and grading to occur between the finished grade and original contours. The Frey Trailhead parking lot at Juniper Campground planned to construct approximately 40 additional parking spaces, including required accessible parking, south of the existing parking lot in an area previously disturbed by construction.
