Placemaking

When creating green spaces for people to use – playgrounds for children, community gardens, green corridors that include cycle paths and walkways – it can be challenging to achieve the right balance between the functionality and benefits. 

Our engineered water management solutions combined with soft SuDS techniques allows for the storage of higher volumes of water and can then regulate attenuation to ensure the creation and usability of these green spaces, where under normal circumstances, would be wasted land. Permeable paving allows rainwater to filter through to geocellular attenuation tanks below – storing and reusing rainwater for self-sustainable landscaping – and sports pitches have the ability to conceal and capture immense volumes of rainwater, whilst the geocellular tanks irrigate the pitch above allowing the grass to reduce temperatures through evaporative cooling.
