In order to understand the long-term hydrologic behaviour of a road-side VFS, a coupled HYDRUS 2-D subsurface and 1D overland flow model was used. This model was validated over an 8 months period based on five soil moisture sensors readings. Results show good agreement between simulations and measurements for some sensors. Conversely, a discrepancy was identified for other sensors at particular periods. This outcome leads to a better understanding of the actual hydrological performance, such as a probable occurrence of preferential flow. %G en %B New Trends in Urban Drainage Modelling %A Kanso, Tala %A Gromaire, Marie-Christine %A Ramier, David %A Chebbo, Ghassan %E Mannina, Giorgio %D 2019 %K Filter strip Hydrological performance Preferential flow
