Three (3) curb cut inlets of 1 m width each, representing a total curb cut width of 3 m, are proposed for an offline [[Bioretention|bioretention cell]] receiving runoff from an adjacent roadway. The gutter and the curb are made from smooth concrete with Manning's 'n' = 0.013. The cross-slope ratio is 3% and the longitudinal slope of the road is 2%. The 1 in 25 year design storm produces a peak flow of 0.08 m<sup>3</sup>/s.

The total width of curb cut inlets required to capture 100% of this flow is:
