Have Your Say

Let us know your tree planting preference.

As part of City of Ryde’s Urban Forest Strategy and Street Tree Master Plan, Council is continuing its annual street tree planting program to grow canopy cover, strengthen connections between local bushland, support biodiversity, and enhance the character of our neighbourhoods.

With funding secured through the NSW Government’s Greening Our City 2026 Grant, Council will be planting approximately 800 new street trees across Gladesville, Tennyson Point and Putney, with additional planting planned in Ryde, West Ryde and Meadowbank.

Council-managed open space within these suburbs - including parklands, bushland fringes and nature strips - have been identified as potential planting locations.

Prior to planting, Council’s experienced Tree Management team will conduct site assessments to confirm suitability and select appropriate species in line with Council’s Street Tree Master Plan. Assessments consider safety, services, sightlines and available space, while maximising long-term environmental and community benefits.

This program is an opportunity for our community to help create greener, cooler and more liveable streets for today and future generations. We appreciate your support and participation as we work together to grow a healthier urban forest.

Note: Exact location may vary.

Benefits of Street Trees
