Highway Runoff

The water that runs off our traffic-filled roads ends up in our rivers, but we know little about it, it's hardly monitored and improving the quality of that runoff is a huge task. Join us for this special episode of Planet Possible in collaboration with Watershed Investigations as we dig into the realities of highway runoff . We’re joined from the front line by Jo Bradley from Stormwater Shepherds as she carries out water quality testing and hear from both National Highways, who own the strategic road network and the Environment Agency, the environmental regulator in England. We explore how we manage these flows and what the future looks like - and of course we’ll offer our guests the Planet Possible magic wand too.
