Abstract
The Benefit Analysis of Barrier Inlet Screens research project studied the effectiveness of screening devices at preventing debris from entering stormwater inlets along highway barrier walls. This research was focused on large trash and debris, as opposed to sediment and dissolved solids. A variety of proprietary and non-proprietary screen devices were evaluated through a combination of field testing along active ODOT roadways and full-scale physical laboratory modeling. This report will summarize the testing approach, methodology, findings, conclusions, and recommendations implemented by ODOT and the research team. This will include the impacts of debris on roadway drainage systems, the environmental and anthropogenic factors that impact litter and debris conveyance to an inlet, and how stormwater inlet capacity can be diminished by debris accumulation.
