A total of 33 trees, eight bushes and 1,200 plants have been bedded along
the revamped Danube end of Arany János utca, a busy street in Budapest’s
business quarter running at right-angles to the river.
The road is also integral
to the city’s burgeoning gastronomic hub, where quality restaurants attract a discerning
clientele, particularly at lunchtime.
The pavement has since been widened with natural stone paving and made
wheelchair-friendly. New benches, bicycle storage and rubbish bins have been
installed, along with a communal drinking fountain. Old street lighting has been
replaced by modern LEDs.
Work on the section towards Podmaniczky tér, where the
renovation of Arany János utca metro station has long been under way, begins
next month.
