Root <br />Barriers <br />A physical <br />barrier <br />installed to <br />prevent roots <br />from causing <br />damage to <br />nearby <br />structures or <br />infrastructure. <br />Deters root <br />growth to limit <br />hardscape <br />damage, such <br />as curbs, <br />gutters, and <br />sidewalks. <br />Deters roots where <br />root barrier exists, <br />does not address all <br />tree root issues, not <br />an arboriculture <br />BMP. Cost effective. <br />In line with City of <br />Rancho Cucamonga <br />Municipal Code <br />17.56.50.I. <br /> <br />Monolithic <br />Sidewalks <br />A single layer <br />of concrete <br />with no curb <br />breaks or <br />visible joints <br />between the <br />sidewalk and <br />curb or street. <br />Reduces <br />potential for <br />future <br />weakness in <br />pavement <br />infrastructure. <br />Cost effective, <br />no <br />maintenance <br />for curb edges. <br />Provides an <br />accessible and safe <br />walking surface with <br />reduced tripping <br />hazards. Not <br />recommended for <br />tree species known <br />to have rapid root <br />growth due to <br />increased risk of <br />cracking. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
