Sustainability and Resilience

  • 1.  Porous Pavement

    Posted 2 hours ago

    Interesting and useful paper in the 19 May issue of  Journal of Sustainable Water in the Built Environment

    "Evaluating the Hydrologic Performance of Permeable Articulating Concrete Blocks over Silty Clay Soil in Maryland" found that porous pavement allowed significant infiltration of rainfall, even over nominally unsuitable soil. Good news for that approach.

    Do you have experience pro or con with porous pavement?
