Project Description:

The RLFMP Flood Mitigation Planning & Feasibility

Study aims to refine coastal protection options developed through CRS

South Boston and advance the Master Plan sustainability and resilience

vision by developing a feasible and implementable stakeholder-supported

solutions that protect against current and future coastal flooding that

support marine industrial uses and ship-to-shore transfer of goods. The

Study, initiated by the Coastal Resilience Delivery Team of the City of Boston

Planning Department in Spring 2023, is provided technical support by a

consultant team led by Arcadis. The project team, working closely with

stakeholders including Massport, marine-dependent businesses and other

tenants, and the Boston Marine Park Business Association to complete an

existing conditions analysis; risk and vulnerability assessments, alternative

district-scale coastal resilience strategies and alignments, seeks to present

and solicit community feedback on preferred alternatives.
