Planting for the 2024 Parramatta Light Rail program is now complete. From April to mid-June 2024 we planted around 500 trees (21 tree types with a focus on native trees). Planting took place in Granville, Harris Park, Northmead, North Parramatta, Parramatta, Rosehill and Westmead in streets identified as potentially affected by urban heat and benefitting the most from new trees.
Residents who have registered to become a Tree Champion will now start receiving confirmation and information packs. All Tree Champions should have their tree allocations by mid-July 2024.
In partnership with Transport for NSW, Council's 2024 Parramatta Light Rail Tree Planting program will see 500 new street trees planted across our City. Please see below for information on the new trees coming to your area.
