Upper Toongabbie Creek Flood Mitigation Strategy (Stage 1): Toongabbie 'confluence' area and West Baulkham Hills, Toongabbie Creek

Summary

This project involves excavating a high level floodway next to Toongabbie Creek in Sue Savage Reserve (Package A, under construction) and raising the height of the existing Sierra Place flood basin wall to increase its flood capacity (Package B). These works will significantly reduce the flood threat in the 'confluence' area where 309 residential properties, including 44 homes, are subject to 100-year flooding. The works will also safeguard the Sierra Place basin by enabling it to contain the 100-year flood.
