Permeable paving can effectively reduce runoff via infiltration
… but it does not add amenity value to the community.

At a fraction of the cost, swales can provide moderate runoff reduction
and increase the amenity value as a result of the green surface areas.

Sustainable approach costs about the same to operate, much less to build yet
a lot more for the land occupied when compared to traditional approach.

In this case, the framework suggests similar long-term costs for both approaches.

(Let me repeat the key message again…)
Each technique has its own
advantages and disadvantages.
Goal: moving away from subjective
opinions to a systematic, evidence-

  • 22. Using the Framework – Outputs: Operational and Capital Expenditure 08 of 14 slides
  • 23. Using the Framework – Outputs: Operational and Capital Expenditure 08 of 14 slides Swales are relatively cheap to build and maintain.
  • 24. Using the Framework – Outputs: Operational and Capital Expenditure 08 of 14 slides Permeable paving costs a lot more to build and maintain.
  • 25. Using the Framework – Outputs: Operational and Capital Expenditure 08 of 14 slides Question: can the costs be justified?
  • 26. Using the Framework – Outputs: Key Performance Measures 09 of 14 slides
  • 27. Using the Framework – Outputs: Key Performance Measures 09 of 14 slides Permeable paving can effectively reduce runoff via infiltration … but it does not add amenity value to the community.
  • 28. Using the Framework – Outputs: Key Performance Measures 09 of 14 slides At a fraction of the cost, swales can provide moderate runoff reduction and increase the amenity value as a result of the green surface areas.
  • 29. Using the Framework – Outputs: Key Performance Measures 09 of 14 slides Goal: moving away from subjective opinions to a systematic comparison. Each technique has its own advantages and disadvantages

Comparing Different Approaches: Sustainable vs. Traditional 10 of 14 slides Bioretention Permeable Paving BioretentionWetland Swale Swalephoto's courtesy of allbiz Storage Tank Question: is it worth considering the green approach after all? What do you think? Let’s consider the sustainable design example discussed in previous slides again. What if we replace the swales and wetland with storage tanks?
  • 33. Comparing Different Approaches: Sustainable vs. Traditional 11 of 14 slides
  • 34. Comparing Different Approaches: Sustainable vs. Traditional 11 of 14 slides Sustainable approach can provide multiple benefits in addition to water management.
  • 35. Comparing Different Approaches: Sustainable vs. Traditional 11 of 14 slides Sustainable approach costs about the same to operate, much less to build yet a lot more for the land occupied when compared to traditional approach.
  • 36. Comparing Different Approaches: Sustainable vs. Traditional 11 of 14 slides In this case, the framework suggests similar long-term costs for both approaches.
  • 37. Comparing Different Approaches: Sustainable vs. Traditional 11 of 14 slides (Let me repeat the key message again…) Each technique has its own advantages and disadvantages. Goal: moving away from subjective opinions to a systematic, evidence- based comparison.
