Greens want to transform afterwards with 1000 trees to the city paradise!

On April 1, 2025, the Greens take a significant step to improve the quality of life in the Hernals district in Vienna. They call for the creation of a forest on Hernalser Hauptstraße, the goal is to plant 1000 new trees, which would represent a quadruple of the existing number of tree. This proposal was launched by Judith Pühringer, the top candidate of the Greens, and aims to transform Hernalser Hauptstraße, who was busy and called "traffic hell".

The condition of the environment is also burdened as a "hot hot spot" by Elterleinplatz. According to a study by the Greens, the measures to green are particularly important, since the high traffic load affects the catering businesses and residents. In order to counteract these grievances, the initiative plans numerous measures to improve the urban climate and quality of stay.

redesign of the Hernalser Hauptstraße

A central element of plans is to reduce the passage traffic, especially heavy traffic. In addition, wider sidewalks, consumption -free residence zones and continuous, safe bike paths are considered. In order to increase the attractiveness of Hernalser Hauptstraße, new crossing options for pedestrians should also be created and the tram stops are upgraded by green tracks.

Another highlight of the planned redesign is the proposal to get the Alsbach, which has been flowing underground underground, to the surface. Judith Pühringer emphasizes the immense importance of an open stream, which should not only contribute aesthetically appealing, but also functionally to cool the city climate. The creation of the Alsbach park is planned as a new green oasis in the densely populated city area, which serves to relax and leisure activities.

sustainable urban development

District President Deputy Deputy Karin Prauhart not only sees a challenge in the construction site of the U5, but also an opportunity for sustainable urban development in the district. The Greens strive to not only improve the cityscape by planting the 1000 trees and the creation of new green areas, but also the health and well -being of the residents: to promote inside. Studies indicate that urban green offers several advantages, including improving the urban climate and positive effects on the physical and mental health of the population reports reports

The ideas and suggestions for the planned measures in Hernals are part of a major discussion about the need for urban green and its strategic integration into urban development. According to the Greens, the promotion of green spaces is crucial for improving the quality of living and staying and addressing challenges such as adapting to climate change.
