Introduction
• Urban centres are usually
characterized by heavy traffic
• Growing population also
promote the transport related
population and thereby affects
the water quality.
• Generation of dusts also
promotes the detoriation of
urban water quality (Borris et
al 2013).

• Role of vehicles in lowering
the water quality of urban
area.
• Alteration of ecosystem
tolerance level in urban
area.

Scope and Context
Scope of the Study
The study was limited to the
analysis of urban water quality as
influenced by the runoff.
Context of the Study
The study aims to evaluate the
impacts of various components
comprising of land use, texture of
the pavement, climate conditions,
cleaning methods of the streets on
the water quality of the water in the
urban areas.

Research Question
Is there any impact of climatic
changes on the quality of water
in urban areas?

9 08/31/2024 Add a footer
The pollutant build-up which is traffic
generated on the urban roads is
influenced by the changes in features of
urban traffic including congestion, daily
traffic as well as the depth of road
surface texture.

Discussion
• Increment in the water
pollution level due to
deposition of heavy metals.
• Water pollution due to road
dusts is reported along with
the adverse effect to the
residents of the area.

• Runoff solids of storm is
another harmful water
pollutants.
• Absorption rate of heavy
metals .

Research
Spotlight
• The Padoan et al. (2018) studied the
role of terrain of the road and other
areas in the environmental pollutions.
• The article discusses the process of
calculating the amount of metals
present in the polluted water.
• The article is very helpful for this
study as the article gives an actual
facts of the incidents related to the
enhanced number of pollutants in the
urban water.
• The main bias of this study is that the
study is based on the influence of
road characteristics and its effect on
the water quality of the urban area.
