🌍✨ Celebrating Earth Day was an enriching experience for Team OHM as we partnered with the talented students of Detroit's Frederick Douglass Academy (FDA) to revitalize their school's greenhouse and greenspace. It was a hands-on tribute to the resilience and natural beauty of our planet. 🚁 With Drone Safety Day approaching on April 27th, we're also reminded of the paramount importance of safe and responsible drone operations. Through our GIS Pathways Program at FDA, students are introduced to cutting-edge drone technology while learning essential safety practices for today’s skies. This harmonious blend of environmental stewardship and technological education underscores our commitment to fostering both the earth and young minds. By promoting sustainability alongside safety and innovation, we're paving the way for a brighter future. 🌱🛸 Discover more about how you can join us in celebrating Drone Safety Day and “Fly RIGHT”: https://lnkd.in/gHeEDFNB. #EarthDay #DroneSafetyDay #FlyRight #Sustainability

🌳 April is World Landscape Architecture Month, a time to celebrate the art and science of this practice, which plays a crucial role in creating sustainable and vibrant environments. Reflecting on what this month means to our work at OHM Advisors, Director of Design Josh Helms shares, “Landscape architecture is about designing spaces that offer functional, beautiful and sustainable solutions with a lasting impact. It blurs the line between the built and natural environment, where possibilities are endless.” As the American Society of Landscape Architects shines a spotlight on the transformative power of landscape architecture, we're proud to showcase the field’s impact through projects like Roosevelt Park. This 13-acre haven features an impressive 9,498 plants, 119 trees 71,641 bulbs, and innovative elements like bioretention basins and underground storage for reducing peak flows. 🌱🌷 This standout project exemplifies our drive to design resilient, sustainable and vibrant spaces that evoke discovery, surprise, and lasting memories. Join us in advocating for and inspiring the next generation of landscape architects, ensuring a greener, more imaginative world for everyone. 🌍✨ #WLAM2024 #LandscapeArchitecture #RooseveltPark

See the Orange? Slow Down! 🧡🚧 Go Orange Day marks the midpoint of National Work Zone Awareness week, and each year Team OHM proudly rocks their finest orange gear to show our support of work zone safety and to the families of victims who have lost their lives in work zones. What’s your reason for going orange? #GoOrangeDay #NWZAW #Orange4Safety #WorkZoneSafety #TeamOHM

🚧 It’s National Work Zone Awareness Week 🚧 As construction season begins, the American Traffic Safety Services Association (ATSSA)’s NWZAW emphasizes the importance of work zone safety, with this year’s theme being an important reminder: "Work zones are temporary. Actions behind the wheel can last forever.” At OHM Advisors, safety is our year-round mission. We elevate work zone safety with advanced measures like our GIS-integrated site-specific safety plans. Before any project begins, we conduct detailed risk assessments using Geographic Information Systems to tailor safety protocols directly to the specific challenges and hazards of each location. This proactive approach not only ensures comprehensive hazard mitigation but also enhances real-time communication and monitoring, keeping our teams informed and safe throughout every phase of construction. We're proud of our innovative safety measures and comprehensive Safety Manual which guides our commitment to protecting our team and the communities we serve. Work zone safety starts with each of us. #NWZAW #SafetyFirst #GIS #WorkZoneSafety #SaferRoadsSaveLives
