water sensitive urban design biokapture, tree planting
ORCHARD ROAD CHATSWOOD
Using Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) and Urban Renew’s BioKapture biofiltration garden, Urban Renew created a tree lined gateway into Chatswood CBD, incorporating 15 new trees and raingardens.
The BioKapture biofiltration system, located at the entrance to the raingardens, redirects and filters a majority of the pollutant wastewater. By using the innovative, fully replaceable and plastic free biofiltration garden, the biofiltration raingarden layer can be removed and swapped as often as needed.

Biofiltration Urban Elements
BICENTENNIAL RESERVE
Urban Renew transformed the Bicentennial Reserve, not only by creating a new landscape and working closely with Replas to install their carefully thought out and recycled plastic seating, but by adding Urban Renew’s large biofiltration system and low flow diversion using Replas to control erosion.
The final product is a beautiful and sustainable reserve with long lasting results, protecting our environment for future generations.
WILLIS TENNIS CENTRE
