Abstract This project's primary purpose is to evaluate whether integrating air purification stations into urban roundabouts can effectively mitigate outdoor levels. By constructing a scale model of a high-traffic intersection, we aim to demonstrate how reimagining underutilized city infrastructure can actively improve environmental quality. This research explores a practical, localized strategy for reducing atmospheric pollution and enhancing public health in dense urban spaces.
