Sustainable Asset Valuation (SAVi) of Stormwater Infrastructure Solutions in Johannesburg, South Africa

20 Apr 2021

The Paterson Park Precinct project is part of Johannesburg's Corridors of Freedom Initiative, which seeks to improve social cohesion within the urban environment while maximizing environmental and economic benefits. The project is also part of the Global Environment Facility (GEF) Sustainable Cities Impact Program, which promotes holistic urban planning to maximize environmental and social benefits and avoid negative trade-offs. One of the components of the project included an upgrade of the stormwater infrastructure in the precinct area through a combination of grey and green infrastructure. This assessment aims to contribute to that discussion, particularly in light of the city's 2021 Climate Action Plan.
