We aim to plant 1,500 new trees every year in the City of Canada Bay as part of our Urban Canopy Program, which helps to support our community to live in vibrant, resilient places that connect people.
Urban canopies not only help keep streets cooler, the trees also remove carbon, produce more oxygen, provide habitat and filter stormwater and air pollution as well. A bonus to this is that street tree canopies are beautiful and add charm to our streets.
This page provides information about the streets we are currently planting new trees on. We ask our community to provide feedback and work together with us to ensure the right tree is in the right place to grow!
