Green Roofs + SUDS Exhibition

Come and be inspired by the Green Roofs and SUDS examples that already exist in Bristol, and see amazing examples from around the world.

• SUDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage) mimic natural drainage patterns and help slow down surface water runoff (helping to prevent flash floods in heavy rain).
• They are not just drains but can provide wonderful public water features, encourage local wildlife, prevent pollution and allieviate flooding.
• Green roofs are a type of SUDS. They can be planted with a diverse number of plants giving wildlife an alternative habitat as well as reducing air pollution. You may be surprised to find a meadow in the centre of Bristol and a grass classroom in the sky!
