Case Study
Much of the Meadowood Napa Valley resort and its surrounding forested landscape were destroyed by the Glass Fire, which burned over 65,000 acres and destroyed more than 1,500 structures. As part of SWA’s redesign for the damaged grounds, all dead-end roadways longer than 1,000 ft were reconfigured as loops in order to help ensure maximum emergency egress options.
