Yarra Trams "Urban Arbour" mini ecosystems designed by Plant Based Building Solutions

Yarra Trams in conjunction with The City of Melbourne and the Department of Transport and Planning commissioned PBBS to create the "Urban Arbour" for trams stops in Melbourne's CBD. "These mini ecosystems provide shade, greenery, and improved travel experience for our passengers" it will "reduce the impact of urban heat, increase shade, and create healthier, safer environments for tram passengers in the CBD. The Urban Arbours initiative also helps reduce graffiti and air pollution, building on our ongoing efforts to address heat impacts at tram stops" as quote by Keolis Downer. Visit the PBBS Arbours at Stop 10 Royal Children's Hospital, Stop 124 Batman Park, Stop 5 - Bourke/Williams st's and at Stop 3 Bourke/Elizabeth street in the CBD
