Summary

Harbor Point Elementary located at 4189 East Schooner Drive, Saratoga Springs, Utah, is a new elementary that was placed on an undeveloped site with a grand view of Utah Lake to the east. As part of the architectural engineering design team for Alpine School District led by VCBO Architects, Meridian Engineering provided the survey, civil site layout, utility plans, drainage, grading, and subdivision plats for the collaboration of a beautiful, tech-friendly, two-story educational facility.

Meridian’s role began with design grade surveying, boundary analysis, and amended subdivision platting. Civil design included site grading and drainage plans for two parking lots, bus and parent drop-off zones, and two new play fields. In addition, Meridian provided site utility design for all new sewer, water, and storm drain connections. To provide access to the school, Meridian designed two new roadways, Captain Street and Schooner Drive, as well as the widening of Redwood Road for a left turn lane. The roads were included in accordance with city standards and a traffic study as part of the design. The new school was constructed by Hogan Construction and opened in August 2021.
