Road Drainage System Development in a Siberian City

Negative consequences of global climate change and rapid urbanization are problems of combating urban floods, underflooding and increasing the safety of adjacent water bodies due to the washout of storm water and municipal waste. These problems are being solved slowly and ineffectively. This is explained by harsh climatic conditions in a large number of territories, higher number of abnormal rainfalls, insufficient financial injections into the construction of storm systems from the state and business structures, imperfection of regulatory documents based on outdated information for calculating projects. Conclusions are formulated on ways out of the crisis situation in the city of Tomsk (Western Siberia). It is proposed to improve the collection and drainage of atmospheric water from road sections.
The relevance of the work is associated with the improvement of the system of atmospheric wastewater removal from the road pavement and urbanized areas, especially at abnormal volumes of rainwater.
Purpose: The aim of the work is to assess environmental, economic and technological potential of Russian and foreign techniques to ensure effective storm water drainage and primary treatment of surface runoff.
Methodology/approach: The analysis of the current state and prospects for the implementation of the best foreign practices for collecting, removing from urbanized areas, effective water drainage devices; comparative assessment of practices that are most suitable for continental climate conditions with a long cold period and significant amounts of precipitation; measures to improve the efficiency of storm water drainage; theoretical research of literary sources, theoretical analysis, interdisciplinary synthesis; methods of logical generalizations, patent analysis, search and statistical methods.
Research findings: The paper highlights foreign achievements and problems of drainage and storm water treatment from urban roads. Increasing interest in biophilic engineering technologies includes stages of collection and removal of surface runoff water, its primary treatment, and evaporation or infiltration into deep aquifers. The state of the drainage problem in Russia is considered herein. Modern technical means capable of organizing a road drainage system and, if necessary, treating storm water are investigated. The main reasons for the unsatisfactory condition and insufficiency of road drainage systems are identified.
Practical implications: Systematization and generalization of approaches to combating excess urban storm water serve as the basis for improving modern drainage systems in Russia. Foreign experience in draining, isolating, and recycling storm water can be used and developed in different natural and climatic zones of Russia with respect to the specifics of their geoecological situation.
