Enhancing hard infrastructure assets: working with nature event

The Construction Industry Research and Information Association (CIRIA) are hosting an event in London on 12 May 2015 that fits within the Future Cities agenda.  The event will describe a number of biodiversity enhancements and show how, by ‘working with nature’:

• hard infrastructure assets can be part of an integrated green infrastructure scheme 
• hard infrastructure assets can have improved multifunctionality and service-life
• asset owners, developers and designers can deliver multipolicy benefits
• research discoveries could be taken up through product design and construction details on-site, using often minor alterations to standard products and detailing.
