Here’s what makes pervious concrete pavement a sustainable alternative
For millennia, cities have played an essential role in human evolution. Most economic activities, industry, resources (and their use), waste and pollution creation are concentrated in these areas. The urban population rises as the world’s population grows and cities are developing by building more infrastructure. As a result, traditional construction methods that do not consider environmental concerns have a substantial impact. Among the many difficulties that arise, water management and pollution directly affect people. Water becomes polluted because the natural water cycle is disrupted by the impermeable barrier formed by roads and buildings. Water cannot percolate into the natural soil; instead, it rushes over pavements, generating runoff and polluting the environment. At the same time, this poses a threat to the safety of drivers.
Pavement options
Pavement construction primarily uses standard conventional concrete. The impermeable nature of concrete pavements adds to increased water runoff into drainage systems, overburdening infrastructure and causing excessive flooding in a settled region.
