Intensivt trafikerade vägar genererar dagligen ett brett spektrum av föroreningar, av vilka många är listade som prioriterade ämnen genom EU:s ramdirektiv för vatten. Vattendrag som korsas av vägarna exponeras av dessa föroreningar genom vatten- och luftburna processer, något som riskerar utarma vattenkvaliteten i recipienterna. Fyra vägbroar i Segeåns avrinningsområde (sydvästra Skåne, Sverige) Heavily trafficked roads continously generate a wide spectrum of pollutants, of which many are listed as priority substances according to the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD). Watercourses that intersect with major roads are exposed to both airborne and waterborne traffic generated pollutants, possibly deteriorating the receiving waters.
