Abstract
This paper identifies the challenges associated with the construction and establishment of water sensitive urban design (WSUD) systems, and describes how these challenges have been overcome through the conceptualisation and application of a novel WSUD construction and establishment methodology. The methodology, developed in collaboration with civil and landscape contractors, involves three stages of establishment, namely, functional installation, sediment & erosion control, and operational establishment. The paper illustrates the application of the WSUD construction and establishment methodology to two of the most common elements in contemporary WSUD design, being bioretention systems and constructed wetlands.
