Coming soon - updated SuDS tools
Our UKSuDS tools will be updated and relaunched on 19 March 2025. The updates will make the existing tools more user friendly and technically robust, and a new tool - the 'SuDS performance evaluation tool' will be added to the suite.
What’s changing:
- Surface water storage volume design tool – This tool will be completely revised.
- Infiltration volume design tool – The spreadsheet tool will be replaced by a new web tool.
- SuDS performance evaluation tool – This is a new tool. It evaluates a scheme against all hydraulic criteria (including Interception!)
- Greenfield runoff rate estimation tool – This tool will have a refresh.
There will be no changes to the 'Water quality assessment for SuDS developments (SuDS manual)' or the 'Water quality assessment for SuDS developments (WaND)'.
Potential downtime of tools
To allow us to update the website, the existing tools will become unavailable on Tuesday 18 March 2025, so please plan for that if you are using the tools currently.
Please note that as the tools have been improved, the estimates may be different to those generated by the existing tools.
