bioretention

Bioretention is a widely used countermeasure to address stormwater runoff issues and restore the urban water balance. Bioretention is one of the typical stormwater source control measures used within sustainable urban drainage systems. A bioretention system uses the properties of vegetated soils or engineered substrates to control runoff volume and flow, restore a more natural water balance, improve water quality, but also contribute to urban cooling and amenity.
