Trees and Transportation (Webcast)
Trees and landscape features that are located within the public right-of-way and adjacent to roadways in urban environments are often perceived by transportation officials as a safety risk.
Tree plantings may be limited or prohibited by public works ortransportation professionals due to concerns. But there are manycommunity benefits that result from having roadside landscapes. Armedwith that information, advocates of urban forestry are encouragingroadside plantings that balance transportation mobility, accessibilityneeds, public welfare, and community livability.
