Town of Riverview

Published purpose

The Mill Creek Naturalized Stormwater Pond Project in the Town of Riverview, New Brunswick addresses the town's urgent housing and infrastructure needs by constructing a critical stormwater management system. This project will unlock and enable building out of Carriage Hill, the town’s fastest-growing neighbourhood. It involves planning and capital construction components, including the creation of a naturalised detention pond with a surface area of over 10,000 square metres and of a catchment area of nearly 40 hectares. The detention pond will manage stormwater, reduce flooding risks, and improve water quality. The project will enable construction of almost 1000 new housing units, while improving climate resilience, and enhancing environmental sustainability.
