# Park - General Request, 27A Kingsford Street, Burwood, Christchurch 8061, New Zealand

Burwood, Christchurch · filed 18 August 2022 · report 2555285

> I noticed the soils in the river corridor are compacted clay with severe drainage issues. Is any work being done to improve soil drainage and water retention? Perhaps the team that mows the grass could spread some gypsum/biochar/mulch to help with drainage. Also adding some french drains or planting water loving plant to help minimize pooling water. In summer this pooling water increases mosquito activity and with rising temperatures it will only get worse.
