Campbellford

Water and Flood Zones

The town of Cambellford’s constructed infrastructure is largely defined by the natural land forms, most specifically, the South to North crossover of the Trent River which divides the town into East and West halfs. The town’s waterways are controlled by the Trent Severn Dam and Greenlands system to control flooding as many residencies and commercial zones hug the river and extract hydro resources. Tertiary streams and ravines scatter over the evolution of the town and provide ecological infrastructure within concentrated communities. The town’s agricultural and natural resource infrastructure is its most notable, with various commerical agricultural lands fencing the denser residential developments. Resource Quarries are utilized for industrial mineral extraction and provide economic value to the flat natural landscape.
