This brochure provides information on constructed wetlands for living streams and where they can be used in the water sensitive urban design process.
Living streams are constructed or retrofitted stormwater conveyance channels that mimic the characteristics or morphology and vegetation of natural streams. As well as carrying stormwater, they also treat it using physical and biological processes and create diverse habitats for wildlife. Living streams can become complex ecosystems that support a wide range of plants and animals.
