IDLEWOOD GREENWAY STORMWATER & TRAIL IMPROVEMENTS
Kitchener is adding an underground stormwater storage facility to Idlewood Greenway.
It's part of of a large project to build climate change resilience and improve water quality in our creeks,
This is planned for 2026 and gives us the opportunity to upgrade the the trail section in the greenway area.
The images below show where the underground storage is proposed to be located.
It's between the trail entrances on Oldfield Drive and Chartwell Court.
And centred within Jadestone Crt, Dunnigton Crt, Drumoak Place & Darlington Place
WHEN COMPLETED IT WILL:
Reduce the risk of flooding
Improve water quality in Idlewood Creek & the Grand River
Reduce erosion in Idlewood Creek
Improve resilience against climate change
Enhance community safety
