The benefits of urban drainage you probably need to know!

Global Warming is bringing even more damp and wet weather. But, are we prepared for a wetter stormier future?

The outrageous flooding event costs the economy billions of dollars with no real assurance this can be forestalled without serious changes to our old and outdated drainage techniques. The old concept of Blocked Drains in Surrey was to take up water as fast as could be possible under the circumstances and drive it away into our drainage network as fast as could practically be expected. The issue with this is we know from ongoing events that our drainage doesn't work and is impractical. Expanses of cleared surfaces and areas of urban hard standing drain straight into drains and thus natural watercourses enable contaminations and poisons to run into the natural environment.

Because of the extreme amount of overflow in present-day times we have fused gully pots along with the drainage system which generally gets blocked which costs the local authority hundreds of dollars a year to clear and keep up.

In the past, most of our wastewater including sewage and urban surface runoff systems were consolidated. This empowered a non-maintainable concept of wastewater to develop. Today runoff and sewage channels are separate allowing us the chance to manage runoff in an increasingly naturalistic way.

The scheme of Sustainable urban drainage follows this strategy. Rather than concealing storm water courses behind concrete walls or along urban industrial wastelands, great design carries this water into the heart and urban fabric of the network. The eventual fate of urban drainage in our urban fabric appears to offer boundless advantages to the more extensive biological system and nearby population in terms of financial aspects and recreation.

Benefits of urban drainage

• preventing water contamination

• slowing down surface water run-off and diminishing the danger of flooding

• reducing the danger of sewer flooding during overwhelming precipitation

• recharging groundwater to help forestall drought

• providing significant habitats for wildlife in urban areas

• Creating green spaces for individuals in urban areas.

The concept of Blocked Drains in Whyteleafe is simply designing a path for stormwater to be assimilated once more into the ground as near the source as could reasonably be expected. Urban drainage doesn’t simply offer to spare the economy many billions it offers the chance of recreation, training, and maintainable urban water biological management.
