Sustainable urban infrastructures
WHAT IS INVOLVED ?
Urban development puts great pressure on the environment. Urban agglomerations are part of this development, which requires the creation of infrastructures that harmonize with the environment but above all respect it. Take the case of drainage plans: in Quebec, rain and sleet are part of the setting of the buildings which they wrap in their seasonal coat. On average, , precipitation generally totals around 1,000 millimeters annually and snow is omnipresent during the winter months (Source: Ministry of the Environment and the Fight against Climate Change). Monumental volumes of rainwater fall all over the territory. The water runs off the parking lots and the roads. It is therefore with good reason that the management and flow of rainwater or wastewater is a major societal problem and an issue for environmentally responsible society. ProspecPlus is committed to being part of the solution by taking these parameters into account during our urban designs.
Calling on our experts therefore means providing you with an integrated solution that takes into account the increasing rate of human activities, aging facilities and related environmental issues.
