Streets & Highways

Lightweight and cost effective, we provide the water management solutions for roads, streets and highways to ensure the driving public is safe while also protecting our environment.

High-Performance Drainage for Streets and Highways

The flow path of roadway runoff is effectively managed by ADS high-performance drainage solutions to offer safe travel through consistent long-term performance, rapid, safe, and cost-effective installation, low life cycle cost, and low carbon footprint.  ADS offers the most comprehensive package of sustainable and resilient solutions that covers capturing runoff with inlet structures and slotted drains, conveyance pipe, best-in-class water quality devices, and on-site retention/detention.

Stormwater Applications

Capture: inlets, catch basins and surface drainage systems

Conveyance: pipe systems and fittings for water transport

Storage: detention, retention and underground storage

  • Storage of stormwater runoff assists in mitigating flooding at the source and downstream from the capture locations.
  • ADS Pipe, StormTech Chambers and Aquabox Crates support traffic loads and maximize the functionality of public right-of-way.
  • Green infrastructure solutions support runoff reduction initiatives in critical public infrastructure environments.

Treatment: filtration, sediment removal and BMP compliance

Products in Highway Applications

Our pipe options used for street and highway drainage applications have a 100-year design service life and are far lighter in weight and easier to install than concrete pipe. High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene pipes efficiently conveys large rain events and are tough enough to withstand the most abrasive runoffs, corrosive water and native soils. The lightweight design and longer pipe lengths reduce transportation and installation costs by improving shipping efficiency, simplifying storage and enhancing safety for installers.

Open Competition Means You Win

Requiring robust competition among alternative construction products and materials, including those in drainage, is seen by many DOTs, community leaders and regional authorities as one of the best ways to create efficiencies and reduce costs.  As a leader in water management with decades of experience, ADS delivers on cost-efficient, durable and sustainable drainage solutions for public infrastructure applications.
