This project involved enlargement of an existing detention basin from a capacity of 18ML to 37ML, to limit downstream flow to the existing capacity of the culvert under the Fullarton and Greenhill Roads intersection. The detention basin, together with other works in the South Park Lands reduce the peak stormwater flows along Park Lands Creek and further downstream. The Glenside site is being developed by Cedar Woods and a condition of Cedar Woods agreement with Renewal SA was that the development include delivery of the detention basin and associated stormwater infrastructure required under the SMP.
The Glenside project works are outlined in Section 10.2 of the 2016 Stormwater Management Plan.
