Integrating trees into sustainable drainage systems to manage surface water while delivering long-term urban greening.
GreenBlue Urban provides infrastructure and technical guidance that allows trees to function as part of effective surface water management strategies.
Managing surface water in urban environments is becoming increasingly important as development intensifies and rainfall patterns change.
At the same time, cities are increasingly seeking to increase tree cover while managing surface water more effectively.
Delivering both objectives within constrained urban spaces presents several challenges:
Tree-based SuDS combine tree planting infrastructure with sustainable drainage principles.
This approach allows rainwater to be captured, filtered and stored within tree pits and surrounding soil volumes.
Key benefits include:
When designed correctly, tree pits can form an integral part of a wider sustainable drainage strategy.
Tree-based SuDS combine urban tree planting with sustainable drainage infrastructure, allowing green and blue infrastructure to work together.
Support can include:
This support helps ensure tree-based drainage systems function
effectively while supporting long-term tree health.
Delivering tree-based sustainable drainage systems typically incorporates several infrastructure components.
These elements allow tree pits to contribute to surface water management while supporting long-term tree growth.
Independent studies provide evidence supporting the performance of our SuDS systems, providing confidence in their effectiveness.
Case studies demonstrating tree-based SuDS in streets, public realm and development projects.
