Reedy Creek (Blacktown, New South Wales)

Reedy Creek, an urban watercourse that is part of the Hawkesbury-Nepean catchment, is located in Greater Western Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

Course and features

Reedy Creek rises in the western suburbs of Sydney about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) north-west of the Melville trigonometry station in the Memorial Park located in the suburb of Horsley Park. The creek flows generally north-east by north before reaching its confluence with Eastern Creek, in the suburb of Eastern Creek, west of Sydney Motorsport Park. The course of the creek is approximately 6 kilometres (3.7 mi).

In 2005, the Reedy Creek catchment area was rated the lowest polluting catchment out of the twenty-two catchments in the Blacktown local government area. Whilst only a small proportion of the catchment lies within the City of Blacktown, it is anticipated that future development pressure may lead to significant detrimental changes due to the altering of the run off and stream flow regime and its resulting impacts on the creek.

Reedy Creek (West Virginia)

Reedy Creek is a tributary of the Little Kanawha River in western West Virginia in the United States. Via the Little Kanawha and Ohio rivers, it is part of the watershed of the Mississippi River, draining an area of 133 square miles (340 km²) in a rural region on the unglaciated portion of the Allegheny Plateau. It is 22.6 miles (36.4 km) long, or 38.5 miles (62.0 km) long including its Left Fork.

Reedy Creek is formed in the town of Reedy in northern Roane County by the confluence of its Left Fork and its Right Fork:

From the town of Reedy, the main stem of Reedy Creek flows generally northward into Wirt County, through the community of Lucille; it flows into the Little Kanawha River from the south in the community of Palestine. It is paralleled for most of its length by West Virginia Route 14.
