Abstract:
This chapter provides a consolidated summary of the outcomes from the research study undertaken to investigate the influence of traffic and land use on pollutant processes as well as the practical application of the study findings. The chapter also discusses key areas where currently, there are significant knowledge gaps and further investigations are warranted. These include, the assessment of ecological and human health risks posed by stormwater pollutants, the investigation of other traffic related pollutants and the understanding of the adsorption mechanisms of pollutants—solids inherent in the different transport pathways.
