Why SuDS and not just more “traditional” pipes?
• Better way to drain for many reasons
• Specifically for GM, must disconnect from sewer, therefore:
• Infiltrate into the ground – where possible
• Slow down the flow into an adjacent watercourse
• Green roofs – 50% saving offered
• Added multiple benefits to SuDS
• Cheaper to build than many traditional methods
• Next slides feature some SuDS schools may wish to consider
