Hedding Street to get new asphalt, new bike lanes, and new trees

Our City Forest

I had a nice chat yesterday with Rhonda Berry from Our City Forest yesterday on 'the Ave.' in Willow Glen (thanks to Top Nosh). Rhonda has been doing amazing work as founder, president, and CEO since they started about 20 years ago.

As part of the Hedding Street improvements that are currently being worked on, Our City Forest will be planting trees along the street from the county administration offices in the west to around 13th Street to the East. These trees will benefit the neighborhood well by cleaning the air of particulate matter that is a byproduct of all the traffic as well as reducing summer temperatures.
