Permeable Pavement
Permeable pavement is exactly what it sounds like, pavement that allows water to pass through it rather than shed off. Five types of permeable pavements are commonly used, Permeable Asphalt, Permeable Concrete, Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pavers, Concrete Grid Pavers, and Plastic Grid Pavers. For all permeable pavements, proper installation is critical for effective performance and to ensure long‐term life. Permeable pavements, especially PC, require experienced installers. Permeable pavements can be specifically designed to optimize infiltration and percolation into the surrounding soils. Permeable pavements act as a stormwater control measure primarily by reducing the creation of runoff. Permeable pavements frequently show improvement to stormwater runoff quality, but not always. Permeable friction course is an overlay of permeable asphalt on a layer of standard asphalt.
