Abstract
Abstract: Urbanization has replaced previous vegetative lands with impervious surfaces such as pavement, which reduces the area where infiltration to groundwater can occur, thus increasing surface runoff into streams or accumulation of stormwater that can lead to flooding. Stormwater must be drained from the roadway to protect pavement and travellers from water-related damage. The use of permeable pavement allows stormwater to move through the pavement layers (away from the road surface), where it can either infiltrate the soil and groundwater or drain to the road shoulder, where it is collected for treatment as needed. There is limited evidence, however, regarding any traffic safety issues associated with stormwater and the type of permeable pavement suitable for various traffic requirements.
