Resumen
Urban surface water run-off may generate considerable pollution loads to watercourses in certain types of basins. Stormwater run-off dissolves and picks up materials forming urban surfaces (roads, roof tites, etc.) or that are deposited on the same, and carries these to the drainage networks and potentially to wáter bodies. The problem presented in this article is focused on the analysis of the pollution caused by run-off from roads with high volumes of traffic. Considerable amounts of heavy metals and petroleum hydrocarbons are commonly found in these water flows.
