Pervious Concrete

vs. Asphalt

Comparison of Post-Snowstorm

Pavement Surfaces

These photos were taken within minutes of each other in two supermarket parking lots across the street from each other in Denver, CO. Both lots were plowed in the morning following the overnight snow storm. The air circulating beneath the pervious concrete accelerates the melting of remaining snow and allows the melt water to drain immediately. Besides providing a safe and tidy surface during the day, the totally dry pervious pavement greatly reduces the risks associated with refreezing of puddles as the temperature drops later.
