Gent (Gand) [Ghent], VOV promotes its commitment to green roofs with bus shelter pilot

Gent (Gand) [Ghent], VOV Green Roof Bus Shelter Pilot

In Progress

Four bus shelters in the Woodrow Wilsonplein were outfitted with rooftop planters containing succulents. Shelters included in the pilot host stickers explaining the benefits of green roofs and Gent's subsidy program. Businesses and homeowners receive up to 250 euros for each roof evaluated during a stability study. Gent also pays 45 euros per square meter for installed green roofs. Local officials hope the pilot accelerates biodiversity, heat mitigation, and air quality gains.
