The walking trees are intended to give a first impression of how a possible tree planting would affect the streetscape and the local climate. The goal would be to achieve that the Oberländerstraße is permanently greened.
With this project, a greener, climate-adapted and thus more livable city is promoted. It shows how good the trees are for the public space and how they significantly increase the quality of life of the residents. Especially in the summer months, building facades and streets heat up strongly, so that without greening and the resulting effects such as shadows and better air exchange, the quality of stay along streets is severely limited.
On June 21, 2023, starting at 6:00 p.m., all residents and interested parties are invited to join in pulling the trees from Dreimühlenstraße to the new station in Oberländerstraße. The move will be accompanied by the samba band "Go Brazil", which will provide a summery and exuberant atmosphere.
