Braunschweig is planning an urban development initiative titled ‘50 Trees for the City Center’. The project aims to increase urban greenery to make the city center cooler and more resilient. 

The city administration has identified nearly 60 locations within existing green spaces for planting, with work potentially beginning in autumn or early winter. Officials are also evaluating paved public surfaces that would require the removal of sealing. The project has an estimated budget of approximately 420,000 euros, with the possibility of securing up to 40 percent in funding through the ‘Resilient Cities’ program.
