A Study on Consciousness of Dwellers for Roadside Buffer Planting Belts

Abstract

The purpose of a roadside buffer planting belt is to relieve the environmental impacts from a road. We analyzed the consciousness of dwellers having road environmental problems for the buffer belt.
As a result, it was clear that many of them considered its benefits the function of “compensation”, not physical functions. Therefore we were suggested that the compensational function i. e. landscaping was the important factor for planting of the buffer belt.
