About this listen

Flooding is no longer a seasonal issue - it’s a design failure. In this episode, we explore why traditional drainage systems are struggling under extreme rainfall and how SuDS-compliant permeable paving reduces flood risk by slowing water at source. Tobermore specialist Michael McIvor-New debunks maintenance myths, explains real-world performance during heavy rainfall, and shares what designers must rethink to build resilient developments.
