Green Paths for Cycling

Involves green pavements with special filtering properties suitable for pedestrians and cyclists. These pavements manage water runoff and are designed for use in cycle pedestrian areas. By reducing the speed of cyclists in busy pedestrian zones, these pavements help prevent small flood accumulations. Additionally, the collected water can be used to irrigate other NBS, such as resting areas and pollinator modules, thus integrating multiple green infrastructures for various users.
