Cernusco sul Naviglio
Via Vespucci – In the green area of Via Vespucci, where high-stem scattered trees and tree clusters are currently present, five new forest planting clusters of varying sizes will be created along the entire strip, for a total of 623 plants including both trees and forest shrubs.
Via alla Castellana – In the urban green area of Via alla Castellana, Cooperativa Cascina Biblioteca has created two clusters of forest shrub species in the southern section, while a tree meadow has been established in the northern part. In addition, along the eastern side, the project includes the planting of a row of 8 Japanese pagoda trees and the restoration of 2 Liquidambar specimens.
