Design Scale: Street

Light industrial and commercial areas have the potential to significantly impact the water quality of receiving environments, such as waterways, wetlands, oceans, and groundwater, through inadequate management practices.

Industrial and commercial areas provide good opportunities for harvesting and reuse of stormwater from roofs and paved surfaces. The use of permeable pavements and vegetated areas facilitates increased retention/detention and treatment of stormwater, whilst improving the amenity of industrial and commercial areas through green infrastructure and reduced urban heat.
