Abstract
⺠We model the impact of roadside urban vegetation on the local air quality. ⺠Vegetation in general lowers the wind speed thereby reducing the ventilation. ⺠In general roadside urban vegetation does not appear to decrease concentrations. ⺠Roadside urban trees have a pronounced detrimental effect on the local air quality. ⺠City planners and policy makers need to be better informed about this topic.
