English translation:drain / drainage
Explanation:
Jedná se o vsak formou drenáže, nejvíce to vystihuje "drain" což je trativod. Drainage lze též použít, ale toto slovo evokuje spíš liniový nebo plošný systém. Pokud jsou ve zdrojovém textu vsaky, použila bych "drains".

Příklad věty: In places, where a storm water drain does not exist and where stagnation leading to flooding occurs, sincere efforts should be made to prevent such stagnation.
