Tree planting zone schedules, with years (Urban Forest)

Brief description

Under the Urban Forest Strategy, there are ten Precinct Plans that provide detailed information about how planting will occur in local streets to meet the objectives of the strategy. A planting schedule for streets in each precinct has been developed in consultation with the community and is based on:


- - Community priorities


- - Location and density of vulnerable residents


- - Opportunities for new planting


- - Hot and very hot streets, as shown in thermal imaging


- - Useful Life Expectancy of existing trees


- - Existing canopy cover





This dataset shows the anticipated timeframe for tree planting in each street across the City of Melbourne. This timing is provisional and subject to change. The schedule for some streets may be moved forward or delayed by capital works, developments or renewal projects that impact on tree planting or survival.
