To accommodate climate change-induced sea level rise and ground settling, the 2008-2031 Richmond Flood Protection Strategy guides the City to raise dike heights.

Dike Master Plan

A key action identified in the strategy is to prepare and implement a comprehensive perimeter dike improvement program.

Phase 1 of the Dike Master Plan addressed dike upgrades required for Steveston and the southern West Dike to Williams Road. It was endorsed by Council at the regular Council Meeting on April 22, 2013.

Phase 2 of the Dike Master Plan identifies the long-term dike upgrades required for the West Dike between Williams Road and Terra Nova Rural Park, and part of the North Dike between Terra Nova Rural Park and No. 6 Road.
