Trees help block the view of oceans of concrete and help reduce the heat island effect of the 2 Freeway.
Note: There are no sound walls planned on the southbound side of the 2 Freeway between the 5 Freeway & the Terminus at Glendale Blvd. The sound walls are only taking trees between Oak Glen & supposedly El Moran (more likely, Rosebud) on the Allesandro Street (northbound) side of the 2 Freeway.
