SUDS
In recognition of the need to more effectively manage surface water run– off, the environment agency introduced a Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SUDS) approach, to water management. Pebbo Paving resin bound paving helps meet the requirements of SUDS, providing a fully permeable surface which prevents the formation of standing water by facilitating rapid drainage.
Planning authorities are increasingly expecting that planning applications will demonstrate how a more sustainable approach to drainage has been incorporated into development proposals. They may also use planning conditions to secure the implementation of SUDS, some authorities having used specific supplementary Planning guidance.
Specifying Pebbo Paving, resin bound paving in any planning application ensures that the proposal demonstrates the implementation of a more sustainable drainage system– whilst at the same time delivering an attractive, durable, and low maintenance surface
