The development of urban areas, transport, and technical infrastructure is one of the natural phenomena that have been going on for several centuries. In recent years, due to migration population in many developed countries occurs a rapid increase of impervious areas in urban agglomerations. The rapid development of an impervious surface can cause changes in the hydrological and climatical characteristics of the area. As a result of these changes, surface runoff is creating. Surface runoff is an area source of pollution, occurring mainly during short, intense rains or flash floods. It is primarily formed in sloping or urban areas, where there is a lack of infiltration and retention objects to capture and temporarily retain rainwater. The occurrence of pollutants in surface runoff depends on land use and internal and external factors such as characteristics of air and soil pollutants, intensity and duration of precipitation, and other less important factors. The nature of pollutants in surface runoff in urban areas is diverse. Based on many studies, it can be said that the sources of contaminants in surface runoff coming from the air and paved areas like roads, roofs of buildings, facades, parking, and other impervious areas. The adverse effects of pollutants in the surface runoff negatively affect the environment. Therefore, the research study focuses on assessing the impact of contaminants in the air and on the surface of paved areas on the quality of surface runoff in urban areas. The study results could help design the proper management of surface runoff in urban agglomerations concerning environmental protection and the possibility of rainwater harvesting.
