About the event
Join the international paving hub and experts from around the world for a practical conversation exploring the design, installation and maintenance of permeable pavements—and their importance in modern placemaking.
From busy public squares to streets and neighbourhoods, paving shapes how we experience our built environment. Permeable pavements bring another dimension: making rainwater management part of the spaces we use every day.
Drawing on international experience, our panel will explore how to turn good intentions into successful projects, with a focus on practical decisions and lasting performance.
What we’ll discuss
Design: integrating permeable pavements into sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and attractive, usable places.
Installation: materials, construction details and workmanship—and the common pitfalls to avoid.
