To avoid further damages from flash floods, the city of Johannesburg upgraded the stormwater infrastructure in the Paterson Park Precinct. The chosen hybrid solution combines a concrete structure with a renaturalized stream section. Our SAVi assessment shows that this hybrid infrastructure provides a higher return on investment than purely grey solutions.
