Urban tree planting

February and March 2025

As part of the implementation of the strategy, we delivered tree planting within identified borough wards during winter planting season (March 2025). We planted a range of broadleaf and/or fruit trees on selected sites, whilst ensuring that the selected trees are suitable for each site.

Sites

These sites are:

• Clayhanger Close

• Dales Green Play Area

• Hugo Way

• Kingsbridge Avenue

• Laurel Drive Play Area

• Porthill Dingle

• Stephens Way Estate

• The Butts

• Waterhays

• Wye Road and Bunny Hill

The proposed planting plans for these sites are available to download:

Once planted, these sites will form part of an essential mosaic of local greenspace sites that will be protected for the benefit of nature recovery and carbon capture for the future and in time further carbon reduction opportunities on these sites will also be considered with community involvement.
