Rubber plow blades are increasingly available and required in many jurisdictions. Their use reduces damage to all kinds of pavement surfaces and they are particularly recommended for application where LID facilities exist, such as permeable pavements and curb cut inlets of bioretention, bioswales, swales and stormwater tree trenches.
