Storm Drains
Storm drains, also known as catch basins or stormwater drains, are designed to divert excess rainwater and melting snow away from streets, sidewalks, and other paved surfaces. They are an essential part of a community’s infrastructure, helping to prevent flooding and erosion, and protecting against property damage. Storm drains are typically located in low-lying areas, such as along the side of a road, and are connected to a network of underground pipes that carry the water away from populated areas.
