Landscaped freeways

(The 163 Freeway - Balboa Park)
Why are some southland freeways landscaped so beautifully?
The primary reason for this... is for pollution control. Plants, trees and flowers naturally absorb pollution in return this somewhat limits the amount of pollution that excapes into the higher levels of the atmosphere.
But... during the past ten years or so... a lot of the landscaping has been removed. This is due to water conservation or for widening the freeways.
