Moreover, developing concepts for roadside greening would
profit from participatory processes because demands on specific ES
likely differ among social groups at the local scale. Participation
could help reconcile conflicting demands from urban dwellers and
other stakeholders that might focus, for example, on traditional
design, ecological aims or other socio-economic goals such as
safety. Awareness about the value of multifunctional ES in
streetscapes can therefore inform planning and decision processes
and lead to the development of more livable streets[1TD$DIF].
