To fight the bee population decline, Utrecht has transformed over 300 bus stops into bee sanctuaries. These green hubs, or rather bee stops, are essentially bus stops with grass and wildflowers on the roof that aim to encourage pollination. The project, created by the Utrecht council together with Clear Channel, supports the city’s biodiversity by attracting bee species as well as capturing fine dust and storing rainwater. mainly composed of sedum plants. The green roofs require little water and maintenance to survive. As for the human-centered design, the bus stops feature energy-efficient LED lights powered by windmills and bamboo benches. Located in the center of the country, Utrecht is the fourth-largest city in the Netherlands. Within the past few years, the city has been committed to improving its urban biodiversity and sustainability with projects like Stefano Boeri’s vertical forest, an energy-neutral hockey clubhouse, and a 110-meter-long bicycle bridge among other projects.
