You are welcome!

You saw a bio swale. Bioswales are landscape features that collect stormwater runoff, soak it into the ground, and filter out pollution. Bioswales are similar to rain gardens but are designed to capture much more runoff coming from larger areas of impervious surfaces like streets and parking lots.

​@@climatescan_orgaaah right, pretty cool. You see them everywhere in the Netherlands so I actually didn't notice it anymore. Didn't know the terminology behind it either. Thx for sharing and responding

​@@teunlllyes, over 2000 swales in the netherlands on this map: climatescan.nl/#filter-1-1 but Ruurlo has a special place in our hearts :)

goede vraag, dank. Je kunt alle meetlocaties en resultaten vinden op climatescan.nl (druk op medaille links boven). Alle doorlatendheden waren hoog genoeg om het water binnen enkele uren te verwerken. Hier een link naar een artikel: www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwiHjdSFuNqEAxX82QIHHZGNAvkQFnoECBIQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fresearch.hanze.nl%2Ffiles%2F42206025%2FArtikel_Tilburg_onderzoekt_werking_groenblauwe_maatregelen.pdf&usg=AOvVaw1dFycHH1w8BV6ViX1mqnD_&opi=89978449

Na lezing artikel: Met de regenval van de laatste maanden (mrt’24) en de constatering dat de tweede bui veel minder infiltreert, zou een herhaling van de test nuttig kunnen zijn.

thank you for that correction, you are right its a junction for traffic. But it is not 'normal' since this is a 'speed bump' that also is stormwater runoff management (not a bump but hollow: a roundabout for water) and there are not many of them in The Netherlands (you can find 2 in Didam and some in Enschede, Almelo of this kind or large retention at roundabouts as in Huizen: climatescan.org/projects/2050/detail). If you know more, please share! Thanks again

@@climatescan_org where I live in the Netherlands, a village in Groningen, there are a lot of these. That's especially why I wasn't really impressed by the video.

@@Ramon314 thank you, please share which village so we can add inspiration for water and road managers. It might not look exciting but know that inspiration from Groningen as this hollow roundabout in Winschoten: climatescan.org/projects/851/detail can lead to water retention roundabouts in UK: www.climatescan.org/projects/4196/detail. Thanks again.

@@climatescan_org the Euroweg in Leek has these things. There are more but I know from the top of my head that this street has a couple.

yes, totally agree. Since its subsurface installation its not easy to make footage after construction (but important to show the public that there is climate adaptation under their feet). At every climatescan video there is a project link (for this one its: www.climatescan.nl/projects/8560/detail) showing pictures of the construction. Hope this helps!

Glad you liked it! 😂For anyone that wants to see the value of this test (and clip): its described in this scientific paper: www.mdpi.com/2073-4441/11/2/320 This research used a newly developed, full-scale infiltration testing (FSIT) procedure to determine the saturated surface infiltration rate of 16 existing permeable pavement installations in the Netherlands that have been in service for a number of years. Newly installed permeable pavements in the Netherlands must demonstrate a minimum infiltration capacity of 194 mm/h (540 L/s/ha). Only four of the 16 pavements tested in this study had an infiltration capacity higher than 194 mm/h. Most previous research has focused on unsaturated infiltration rates. However, the results of this study show that the difference in infiltration capacity between saturated and unsaturated can differ by up to 300%. If the unsaturated infiltration capacity is used as design input for computer models, the infiltration capacity may be significantly overestimated. The study demonstrated that the FSIT method is a reliable and accurate way to measure surface infiltration rates of permeable pavements. However, it is recommended that a minimum of three different FSIT tests should be undertaken at the same pavement location, and that the results should be averaged, to ensure appropriate infiltration rates are observed, recorded, and used in design. The results of this study should help stormwater managers with the planning, testing, and scheduling of maintenance requirements for permeable pavements with more confidence so that they will continue to perform satisfactorily over their intended design life.

Hi! this video was part of climatecafe riverscan 2023 and all 12 end resultsvideos can be watched at: climatecafe.nl/2023/04/climatecafe-cebu-april-2023/ hope this helps, thanks from climatescan-team

thanks for responding: it shouldn't be special but more and more parking lots are being paved. This location (and many other unpaved parking lots) are good examples of cost efficient nature-based solutions and deserve to be shared as best management practices (BMP)... Not special, but find over 1000 more examples of permeable pavements at: www.climatescan.org/#filter-1-3 and feel free to share your own BMPs
