HYDROLOGY ANALYSIS
The Palo Verde Bicycle Blvd path between Ft. Lowell and Grant floods quite extensively during rainy seasons occording to the Pima County Flood Control map. The slope of the land routes the reclaimed water north while side streets along Palo Verde Rd. crowns routing additional reclaimed water towards Palo Verde Rd.
3
STORM WATER ANALYSIS Flooding on Palo Verde Rd. Flooding is a regular occurrence in the Tucson area and can occur during either of our two primary rainy seasons – the monsoon season and our winter rains. Due to primary research contact with a local neighbor of the Palo Verde Bicycle Blvd., we where able to determin that a great deal of flooding occurs on Glenn and Paloverde due to the invert shape of the street on Palo Verde Rd.. Since rain water runs south to north towards the Catalinas near the Rillito River this area gets backed up and causes exesive flooding.

Why Traffic Circles?
E. PRESIDIO RD.
Traffic circles are circular intersections designed to improve traffic flow and safety. The traffic circle is a great way to slow down traffic, while creating space for self sustained vegetation and reducing fllooding.

REDUCE SPEED
Why Speed Humps? Speed humps in neighborhood redidential areas are great to reduce the number of vehicles exceeding the recomended speed limit. Modifications could be made to the design of the speed bump to help guide stormwater to green infrastructures.
