Published purpose

The increasing rainfall and development creating more stormwater runoff, adding two large pump stations will mitigate flood concerns. An additional 6 cubic metres per second for the Silda area will ensure flood resilience is increased in its area while 84 Street's additional conveyance ability of 2.5 cubic metres per second will improve the area's drainage overall. The additional ability to move up to 8,500 litres of stormwater per second under high tide circumstances is a large boost to Delta's drainage system.
