LETTER: Porous asphalt or concrete may be a better option than pavers

January 12, 2022

To Ozaukee Press:

I see the City of Port Washington is again considering installing porous pavers on a street project. I have not seen anything about them investigating porous asphalt or concrete.

If you want to do something to have the water get absorbed and not create a raceway to send it into the lake, doesn’t it make sense to investigate more than one option?  

I would assume the cost would be lower because there would not be as much labor involved as there would be in laying pavers.
