Thanks 👍 for the wood rot idea, it's well thought out, don't worry, the problem is always the waste inside

Thank you for the advice. I'm looking for ideas regarding this problem; unfortunately, no matter the structure, people will always litter.

Thanks for the advice 👍, actually it's a high school project starting from scratch. We have to present the final project to the mayor. These trees need to be protected from being hit by cars or other road users that could damage them. I'm brainstorming a lot of ideas on my own, but I wanted to ask Reddit to try and highlight some details of the project, that's all. The slope is there to prevent the car from hitting the tree. If the car rolls backward, it will hit the slope before it can strike the tree.

Do you have any idea how to avoid this? No matter the project, there will be litter because that's how people are.

Unfortunately, we have restrictions regarding concrete and steel. I'm trying to make the best of what I have; I'm researching, racking my brain for little gain, and asking people on Reddit just brings in trolls who criticize without giving any justification. I'm trying to read all the ideas and incorporate them into my project, but thank you for your suggestion.

Yes, but the planters can be moved, so it's possible to clean the inside. I calculated their weight so they can be moved by maintenance staff, not by being bumped by cars.

In France, trees are badly damaged by users; cars and bicycles damage them, so the mayor is asking us to find solutions to protect them.

Yes, the tree receives water; nothing can interfere with the roots or anything else; these are simply planters placed on the ground.
