Riverfields is creating a legacy for growth within the area. Within Riverfields, we are working to rehabilitate the natural wetlands in the area and to invest in a higher quality of life for our communities through increased walkability, cycling, retail and leisure activities resulting in a thriving Riverfields community.
Safety and security is at the top of the list for both residents and business owners. By integrating Riverfields with smart city technology, we have created a safer environment for families and businesses alike. This is a pillar of the precinct and one which will remain an evolving development initiative.
To date, Riverfields has invested in excess of R1.2 billion to increase, improve and upgrade municipal infrastructure along with new development areas. An additional R700 million is currently in the planning phase for further investment in engineering services such as new roads, sewer lines, water reticulation and electrical infrastructure in new land development areas. The transport network of road, rail and air is incredible to see and attracts commuters and business transportation daily to the precinct. In the process, Riverfields has contributed and will continue to establish approximately 160 000 employment opportunities, both in the construction and operational phases of development.
Conveniently located between central Pretoria and Johannesburg, and in close proximity to O.R. Tambo International Airport, Riverfields has established itself as the next economic and lifestyle hub in South Africa. In essence, all roads lead to Riverfields, situated strategically within Ekurhuleni Aerotropolis.
Riverfields is developed with widespread pedestrian-friendly transport routes and public services. In this regard, it becomes a so-called 15-minute city – somewhere where residents can truly live locally, with everything they need just a short walk or bike ride away. This includes residential offerings, retail and restaurant options, entertainment and recreational parks, as an all-in-one stop that stands out from anything Gauteng has seen before. Public transport facilities have been well planned and strategically developed to cater for the needs of commuters.
A sought-after area has emerged in Riverfields, one where community is at its core. In support of this, residential estates have been developed with community parks and clubhouse facilities. The precinct will soon be anchored by more residential developments, well planned facilities such as the developing Harvest Place retail node, a mega-church campus which includes various community facilities, a new private school complex with sports fields as well as a community and activity park. A medical precinct is planned to provide complete healthcare, which will complement the new offering of a retirement neighbourhood.
