The Role of Green Infrastructure in Mitigating Urban Flooding
At BioStream, we understand the devastating impacts of urban flooding on our communities. As a leading provider of environmental and water management services in South East Queensland, including the Gold Coast and Brisbane, we are committed to finding effective solutions to mitigate urban flooding.
Green infrastructure, such as green roofs, permeable pavements, and urban wetlands, plays a critical role in reducing urban flooding by absorbing and filtering rainwater, reducing stormwater runoff, and alleviating pressure on drainage systems. In South East Queensland, where intense rainfall events are becoming more frequent, green infrastructure is an essential tool in our flood mitigation toolkit.
Some of the benefits of green infrastructure in mitigating urban flooding include:
Reduced stormwater runoff and improved water quality
Increased groundwater recharge and reduced flood risk
Enhanced biodiversity and habitat creation
Improved air quality and reduced urban heat island effect
At BioStream, we offer a range of services to help South East Queensland communities, including the Gold Coast and Brisbane, design and implement green infrastructure solutions. From biofiltration and wetland design to erosion and sediment control, we have the expertise and experience to provide effective solutions.
