Where can permeable pavers be used, and for what applications?
Permeable pavers can be used for many commercial and residential applications. In fact, any area that requires a pavement surface could be designed with permeable pavers. They are commonly used for driveways, emergency access lanes, fire lanes, soil and land stabilization, public parks, parking lots and for landscaping purposes. However, specific applications and uses will vary depending on the material, design and system of the paver. Also, sites that are stormwater hotspots and have high exposure to toxic materials (e.g. scrap yards, fuel stations, etc.) would not be a good application for a permeable pavement system.
