What are sustainable drainage systems (SUDS)?
Sustainable drainage systems (SUDS)
The use of sustainable drainage systems (SUDS), also called sustainable urban drainage systems, is increasingly common in all types of development.
This guidance is for businesses that have, or are planning to build:
- large impermeable surfaces such as roofs and roadways
car parks.
- delivery, storage or other yards.
It is also relevant to businesses involved in construction and those involved in providing drainage systems for urban and rural developments.
