Led by CIHT Cymru Wales in partnership with ACO Technologies plc. The webinar will provide an overview of the current guidance on this topic and key issues with designing in the highways environment.
In this webinar, we will look at some of the key issues associated with designing in the highway environment. How these issues influence other areas including pathways and crossing points and what is needed to meet requirements within the current Design Manual for Roads and Bridges (DMRB).
This webinar will delve into the standards and guidance that govern surface water management and wildlife mitigation on and around the highway network. Covering the four pillars of SuDS throughout, a detailed section for biodiversity design is also included where a range of solutions to protect and support the migration of species across our busy network are considered.
Our speakers will also consider the importance of planned maintenance for highway drainage systems and how this can be designed for even at the preliminary stages of a scheme.
Anyone involved with the design, management and maintenance of highway drainage systems or wildlife and biodiversity integration within the highway network. Highway engineers, clients, consultants, ecologists, highway authorities.
