What we’re doing

We’re proposing to plant 6 brush box trees on 2 landscaped median strips from Morley Avenue to Kimberley Grove.

These trees will provide shade and cooling, and help make the street more visually attractive by increasing greening and canopy cover. The median strips will also help slow traffic and make the streets safer.

The proposed landscaped median strips will maintain a 3.2m travel lane in each direction, allowing access for all types of vehicles, including waste collection and emergency services. No parking will be removed (except during construction) and there’ll be enough space to safely parallel park on both sides of the street.
