More than seven thousand trees are planned to be planted in the Northern, Northwestern, and Western administrative districts of Moscow in the construction zone of a key element of the city's transportation network—the highway from Leningradskoye Shosse to 3rd Magistralnaya Street.
Specialists are already selecting suitable sites. Plans call for large areas to be landscaped in the districts along the highway, as well as targeted plantings in courtyards, parks, squares, and recreation areas.
In addition, large trees will be planted in green belts near transport infrastructure. Work will continue throughout the entire road construction period, until 2028.
Trees: from maple to pine
Green spaces are important for the city's ecology and the creation of a comfortable environment. Large trees enrich the air with oxygen and cleanse it of dust, and they also support biodiversity by providing habitats for birds and pollinating insects. Furthermore, green foliage absorbs noise, humidifies the air, and makes it cooler in hot weather.
To ensure the trees thrive, specialists carefully select the right species. Maples, lindens, and ornamental apple trees have proven successful in Moscow: they are quite resilient in the urban environment, show high survival rates, thrive, and add aesthetic appeal to the urban landscape.
These species will form the basis of greenery in northwest Moscow. They will be planted alongside other deciduous trees, as well as conifers such as spruce and pine. This will help the city meet its demand for more conifers. They improve the air quality thanks to the phytoncides they contain and provide a year-round delight to Muscovites.
Sergei Sobyanin announced the completion of the improvement of Volgogradsky Prospekt.Linden trees, oaks, and barberries will decorate Profsoyuznaya Street and 60th Anniversary of October Avenue.
Experts are currently identifying areas for landscaping. Trees are being planted in courtyards, along roadsides, and in parks and squares. Additional green spaces are planned for new neighborhoods. Vacant lots will be replaced by compositions of trees planted in several tiers, along with plants of varying flowering periods. This large-scale landscaping in northwest Moscow will create new popular spots for residents to relax year-round, spend time with their families, and play sports.
