Ark Resources & WSUD
Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) integrates the management of the urban water cycle into the planning and design of the built environment. It encompasses stormwater quality treatment, retention and reuse, and the creation of urban landscapes that mimic natural water processes, reducing the hydrological impact of development on waterways and the broader environment.
Ark Resources has been delivering WSUD services for over 20 years, working across residential, commercial, mixed-use, and infrastructure projects of all scales. Our team has deep experience in MUSIC stormwater modelling and STORM assessments, and works regularly with local councils and Melbourne Water to develop practical, cost-effective treatment strategies that satisfy stormwater quality and retention requirements.
From early-stage concept design through to construction documentation and authority approvals, our WSUD specialists provide integrated water management advice that coordinates with ESD, planning, and civil engineering teams. We have an established track record of achieving efficient approval pathways with Melbourne Water and councils across Victoria, and extend these services to projects across New South Wales, Queensland, and nationally.
About WSUD
Water Sensitive Urban Design is a framework for planning and designing the built environment so that water is managed sustainably throughout the urban water cycle. It is required as part of planning approvals across Victoria and is increasingly embedded in planning policies across other Australian states.
