Abstract :
Automobile traffic, which is considered one of the key permanent sources of different types of urban pollution, particularly contributes to environmental problems linked to cities. Negative environmental impacts produced by city traffic can be significantly reduced through the establishment of roadside green spaces along city roads. This paper examines the impact of roadside green spaces grouped according to their urban biotope type, on ecological factors with the highest impact on human comfort, including temperature, humidity, city noise intensity and wind speed. The results and conclusions of this paper provide guidelines that can be applied in urban environmental planning and the design of open urban spaces.
