Low Impact Design
Low Impact Design (LID) is a new way to develop land than has historically been done in recent times. Its approach is to incorporate natural site features such as wetlands, natural vegetation, into a site development approach that brings nature more into the urban environment and reduces impacts to aquatic receiving systems.
Conventional land development usually takes a ‘cookie cutter’ approach to land development where natural site features are seldom incorporated into site use and downstream impacts to aquatic systems occur.
LID is an alternative approach to site development that reduces adverse impacts and results in a more sustainable outcome. It will become more and more mainstream and this course provides a good introduction to what it is and how to design according to it.
