ABSTRACT:
An overside drain system for use along roadways and other surface areas to drain fluids to a drainage area. The preferred spillway version comprises a premolded flare member to be placed adjacent the roadway, a premolded end cap member configured to drain fluids to the drainage area and premolded extension members disposed between the flare member and the end cap member to extend the drain to the drainage area. The flare member has a fluid entry section to receive fluids from the roadway and a fluid transfer section to transfer the fluids through the drain system. In the pipe or flume version of the overside drain system, the fluid transfer section comprises a pipe or flume member that connects to a piping or flume system. The various members can be made out of a recycled material, preferably crumb rubber. A filter can be used to remove contaminants from the fluid.
