This report by CVC provides a thorough overview of the monitoring work done at the Imax corporate Headquarters, located in Mississauga, ON. The parking lot was expanded and retrofitted with a combination of traditional asphalt and permeable pavement. The asphalt runoff drains to one of three vegetated bioretention units on site. The The parking lot runoff is collected, absorbed and filtered by these LID practices before entering a wetland adjacent to the parking lot.

This report by TRCA highlights the first pilot project by Toronto Green Streets completed as a partnership between City Planning and Toronto Water. The site was first identified as a priority location for improving traffic flow and pedestrian safety in 2014, and the City took the opportunity to retrofit it as a green infrastructure demonstration site. For the project, the right turn lane from Fairford Avenue eastbound to Coxwell Avenue was eliminated and the space was used to build a landscaped bioretention area and public seating. Read more about how this project was spurred by community request for pedestrian improvements to the area and showcased the aesthetic and instrumental value of the new parquetted designed with a bioretention cell on site, by clicking the button above.

The following document from TRCA helps user better determine the appropriate model to simulate wetland hydrology, wetland storage dynamics, and the representation of stormwater management and low impact development (LID) facilities, etc. This document is an appendix to the previously mentioned, [[link= https://sustainabletechnologies.ca/app/uploads/2021/10/TRCA-Wetland-Modelling-Guidance-Document-August_2020-Final_.pdf|Wetland Water Balance Modelling Guidance Document]] and is intended to be a resource for modelers to help them make more informed decisions in modelling wetland water balance scenarios. Read more about this valuable resource for modelers to consult for applications requiring a wetland water balance.
