The Riverside City Improvement District (CID) is a registered non-profit organisation responsible for managing and promoting a 3.9 km² geographical area nestled between the Crocodile and Nels Rivers in Mbombela. The Riverside Precinct encompasses the commercial hub of Riverside Park, the thriving business community of Riverside Industrial, and the natural beauty of the Riverside Reserve, together forming one of the city's most dynamic business, recreational, and lifestyle destinations.
Guided by a mandate from local stakeholders, the CID works in partnership with residents, schools, businesses, service providers, community groups and local government to enhance, maintain, and promote the Riverside Precinct.

As a City Improvement District, we are committed to improving the safety, cleanliness, and overall liveability of the Riverside Precinct. Through strategic initiatives and collaborative partnerships, we help ensure that the Riverside Precinct remains a well-connected destination, welcoming residents and visitors alike, supporting business growth, hosting exciting events, promoting environmental sustainability and ensuring future developments.

As a connector, facilitator, and enabler of positive change, we bring people together to create lasting value for the community. Our vision is for the Riverside Precinct to continue flourishing as a safe, clean, green, vibrant, and sustainable place to live, work, visit, and invest.
