permeable pavements
Permeable pavements are innovative surfaces designed to allow water to pass through them, rather than pooling on top. Made from materials like porous concrete, permeable pavers, or gravel, they help manage stormwater by letting rain seep into the ground, reducing flooding and erosion. This system replenishes groundwater and filters pollutants, improving water quality. Permeable pavements are often used in parking lots, driveways, and walkways, making them an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional hard surfaces. They promote sustainable urban development by integrating natural water management into urban planning.
