Background
Urban Heat Islands (UHIs) are areas throughout the city with few trees, little green space or large areas of paved space that can experience substantially higher temperatures than areas with more shade and less paved area. Raleigh Stormwater is identifying ways to use green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) to reduce UHI effects.
GSI will be coming early 2025 at the following locations:
- Crest Road
- East Martin Street
- Gregg Street
- Levister Court
