Permeable paving means this detention pond is much smaller than originally anticipated, maximizing space for development

Swales, which take water from the paving, create attractive features in the business park

Here water is captured in the swales, whereas in other impermeable areas of the business park water forms ponds on the surface

SUDS provide attractive landscape features that can provide cooling as well as flood prevention functions

To the untrained eye, permeable paving looks no different to any other paving

The detention pond provides a valuable function for people and wildlife alike
