Little Creek Campground Design-Build

This project will award a design-build contract to redesign the existing Little Creek Campground to address site erosion, traffic circulation, sun exposure at campsites, and limited parking within the campground. The work will include replacing a deteriorated wood-framed group pavilion with a new metal pavilion, along with new metal shade structures at each campsite. The existing potable water system will be replaced and will provide hydrants throughout the campsites as well as landscape irrigation for shade trees. Group site parking will be improved to allow easier access for the large RVs and trailers that frequent the site. The Salt Lake Field Office secured a $1,000,000.00 cost-reimbursable grant from the Utah Division of Outdoor Recreation to accomplish this work. The BLM must initially fund the work, after which the State of Utah will provide reimbursement once the project is complete. In order to collect fees at this site, the Salt Lake Field Office must maintain specific amenities such as restrooms, picnic tables, potable water, and adequate parking. Fees collected at this site will be used to maintain the infrastructure and support annual operational costs. This project will allow the SLFO to provide high-quality recreation opportunities to the public in highly visited areas. This campground is being designed to provide two ABA compliant campsites with accessible pathways to restrooms, picnic tables, and fire pits along with two accessible pathways to ABA compliant tent pads. The group site will have accessible picnic tables and is connected to the main parking lot by a concrete accessible walk-way.  This campground meets all requirements of the Architectural Barriers Act for the number of campsites provided.
