In response, modern drainage grates capture water more efficiently. This means larger openings, inlet configurations to catch moving water by vanes or waves, more efficient designs to reduce the amount of iron needed to maintain the same efficiency, and greater capacity to withstand heavy loading from airplanes, heavy machinery, or trucks.

Drainage chutes, also referred to as over-side drains or curb slots, are commonly used at the ends of bridges to either prevent flow from running onto a bridge deck, or to prevent flow from running off a bridge deck onto the pavement.
