It pointed out that it has preserved a large number of trees by pruning branches that obstruct pedestrian movement or pose a danger to public safety, and that the relocation of trees is only done in cases where pruning or technical treatment is not possible, ensuring the safety of pedestrians and the fluidity of movement on the sidewalk.
It added that trees suitable for replanting are transferred according to the rules to planting containers and nurseries, in preparation for replanting them in gardens and sites where the appropriate space and conditions for their growth are available, while the trees suitable for the width of the sidewalk and do not obstruct movement remain in their locations.
In this context, the Directorate of Agriculture and Forestry in the Amman Municipality continues to plant between 120,000-130,000 saplings annually, as part of its plan to increase the green area in the capital in a thoughtful urban manner, taking into account the suitability of the planted species for different sites and the needs of movement, safety, and services.
It pointed out that these works combine the improvement of the urban environment, the protection of the green cover, and contribute to making the neighborhoods of the capital more walkable and improving the quality of life in them.
The Municipality documented through photos and video clips the stages of relocating trees suitable for replanting and preparing them in nurseries and replanting them in alternative sites, in addition to the works of rehabilitating sidewalks.
