Issues concerning anthropic influence exerted on street alignments in Iasi

Abstract

Anthropic interventions madein Iasi street alignments in recent years, even by those who manage these green spaces, often rise questions about their intentions. By this analysis is intended to highlight certain aspects of inappropriate human actions impact on woody vegetation that provides decoration of areas vital for any city, for example the traffic arteries. Observations were made on a batch of 178 alignment trees on Carol boulevard and continuing on Ghica Voda alley from Iasi, during 2014 ÷ 2016, to establish their health status and decorating value, with the final aim to develop an overall long term program (on minimum 10 years) providing necessary interventions in the existing alignments, the distribution in time and space of these interventions, to avoid late or erroneous measures, as well as proposals for plantings.
