It is critical that your project team understands site conditions for road right of ways (ROW) as part of larger process of [[Screening LID Options]]. The choice of the ROW LID approach will depend on road type, type construction project, and then various physical, social, and economic constraints. Please note the function of adjoining land uses and the activity that occurs in and around your retrofit site as part of site conditions for ROW as part of site conditions. Once an initial desktop assessment of the site is complete, the next step is to assess site conditions in order to confirm your assessment, determine the technical feasibility of implementing LID practices within the municipal ROW, (i.e., the existing drainage conditions and general ROW characteristics), and identify and confirm any existing constraints.  

It is critical that your project team understands site conditions for road right of ways (ROW) as part of the larger process of [[Screening LID Options]]. The choice of the ROW LID approach will depend on various site conditions that include road type, type construction project, and then various physical, social, and economic constraints. An initial desktop assessment of the site which includes background studies, existing site plans etc will help have a larger understanding of the site, expected conditions, and what will need to be verified. Once complete, the next step is to assess site conditions in order to confirm your assessment, determine the technical feasibility of implementing LID practices within the municipal ROW, (i.e., the existing drainage conditions and general ROW characteristics), and identify and confirm any existing constraints. Pay attention also to the function of adjoining land uses and the activity that occurs in and around when noting site conditions for the ROW LID retrofit.
