The planters didn’t just add greenery to the hard-paved shopping streets. They also serve as a barrier between pedestrians and oncoming traffic. Granite planters are suitable for use in public places because they are very durable. Unlike other less durable planters, granite planters can withstand hits from shopping carts and trolleys without sustaining damage. This makes them the ideal planting solution for busy city streets and other commercial areas.

The added greenery will help control pollution coming from the exhaust of oncoming traffic and add a nice atmosphere for the people dining at the local restaurants and cafes.
