GREEN-TECH SUPPLY MATERIALS FOR TREE PLANTING AROUND A NEW WIMPEY TAYLOR SUDS SCHEME
Set in the vibrant town of Ipswich , Wolsey Grange is a growing community of newly built homes by Taylor Wimpey
As part of the Construction Environmental Management Plan , a sustainable surface water drainage system ( SuDS ) was implemented , designed to reduce rates of stormwater run-off . An Attenuation basin will control water flow from the site into the existing watercourse . These sustainable drainage features will also create a range of water habitats for wildlife . A maintenance regime has been established to ensure the future performance of sustainable drainage features .
Attenuation basins are a common sight on most new build sites and allow for safe and contained storage for excess rain and stormwater as it allows for its release over time into the sewer system at a controlled rate . They remove much of the potential flooding risk caused by the inability of excess water to drain safely .
