Bionic is leading the adaptation and planning for 3-miles of the Santa Barbara Waterfront for the 30-Year Waterfront Adaptation Plan with Stantec. Orchestrating short and long term solutions, the multi-year planning effort will create a practical plan that will prepare the Santa Barbara Waterfront for increased storm surges, erosion, and flooding by providing solutions that preserve and enhance recreation, commerce, beach access, habitat, and critical infrastructure for the near term and future generations. The Waterfront is already at risk of flooding, storm surge, and erosion during coastal storms and these impacts will get significantly worse with even small amounts of sea-level rise. Bionic is leading adaptation strategies for the public realm, as well as detailed design for a new segment of the multi-modal Beachway including adaptation measures along the waterfront. Bionic is also leading the outreach strategy and the public facing exhibits, including a three-dimensional flood model, to engage with the community throughout the process.
