Tree felling in Berlin: New trees for Herthaplatz planned!

In Berlin, three endangered maple trees must be felled in harmony with the renovation work on the Herthaplatz. The trees, which are badly damaged and are no longer safe due to "growth growth", are eliminated in the course of the necessary measures to ensure traffic safety. However, district councilor Manuela Anders-Granitzki has announced that to compensate ten climate-like tree species are replanted to improve the green areas in the area. These new plantings are also intended to complement the existing shrubs with large shrubs, which enhances the appearance of the area, such as taz.de illustrated.

The support of the BAS, which helped the refugee Ukrainians to continue to march to other train stations, is also discontinued. Instead, the auxiliary structures should now be concentrated in the arrival center in Tegel. The critical voices of the helpers show that many incoming refugees are disoriented by the escape experience and urgently need a retreat. In the future, free tickets will only be provided after registration at the arrival center in Tegel, which reinforces the problem for many refugees, as they are often unable to buy their own tickets. The capacities in Tegel, which are already inhabited by 4,000 people, could further tighten due to the upcoming changes.
