GREEN STREETS

Streets are vital in moving people and goods around a city, but they are also potential areas for transforming public space into welcoming and sustainable greenways. By incorporating trees and planted areas, streets can offset the urban heat island effect and filter and manage stormwater. Additionally, they can provide safe places for street life and alternative modes of transportation, like bikes and public transit. Green streets are designed with people and nature in mind,
