Recent landscaping works on the square in Aviators’ Town have drawn the attention of local residents and environmental activists. According to residents, the area around several trees has been covered with concrete.

Photos from the site show that the soil surrounding the tree trunks has been sealed with concrete, significantly reducing the space needed for the roots to breathe and for the trees to develop naturally.
Experts note that completely covering the ground around trees with concrete can negatively affect their health. Rainwater and irrigation water may no longer reach the root system properly, increasing the risk of root damage and the gradual decline of the trees.
In recent years, significant efforts have been made to protect green spaces, preserve trees, and improve urban environmental conditions. Therefore, it is important that landscaping and construction works are carried out in accordance with environmental standards and best practices.
Local residents and members of the public are calling on the relevant authorities to investigate the situation, assess the condition of the affected trees, and take the necessary measures to ensure their preservation.
Trees are a vital part of the urban ecosystem. They help improve air quality, reduce the effects of heat, and create a healthier and more comfortable environment for residents. For this reason, protecting and preserving every tree should remain a priority in urban development and beautification projects.
