Testing the Concept of Mitigating Overflowing Urban Drain with Permeable Road

Abstract: This study describes a new idea of allowing the overflowing urban drains that cause flash flooding to be connected to a permeable road structure beside the drain. The permeable road with water storage/convey structure could soak up the spill-over waters from drains. In this regard, the Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) was utilized to assist the investigation by simulating a historical flood event with a total rainfall of 324 mm over 5200 m 2 of commercial area. It was expected to generate 1685 m 3 of surfac… Show more

“…It takes a few minutes to several hours for the floodwaters to drain and the rainwater returns to the sewers and the floodwaters are slowly subsided. Although it can be resolved in a short time, it causes inconveniences for instance traffic jams, property damage and some cases human lives (Mah et al, 2020). Besides, the increasing urban population that continues to increase in a relatively short time period, requires good facilities and infrastructure.…”
