Permeable Pavements with Stormwater Collection

• Description: Permeable pavements (such as porous asphalt, permeable concrete, or pavers) allow stormwater to pass through and be collected in underground tanks or recharge the groundwater. The collected water can be reused or allowed to infiltrate naturally.

• Applications: Parking lots, sidewalks, driveways, and urban plazas.

• Advantages: Reduces surface runoff, mitigates flooding risks, improves groundwater recharge, and provides an alternative water source for non-potable uses.
