Street trees in Highbury Rd (Warrigal-Stephensons Rds), Mount Waverly

Our focus is on preserving trees that are healthy and creating additional planting in local parks and reserves to boost greenery.

We will only be removing and replacing those trees that are dead, dying (with a useful life expectancy of less than two years) or dangerous (they pose a risk to the community in the short term).

Street Tree Assessments

Our arborists have completed individual tree assessments based on the above criteria and along Highbury Road we are proposing to remove 20 trees and will be planting a total of 55 trees which includes an additional 40 in vacant locations. 

A street tree renewal plan including all proposed tree removals and replacements has been drafted for Highbury Road (between Warrigal and Stephensons Roads), Mount Waverley and Burwood:

We will be replacing the trees at these locations with appropriate species that are both suitable for the locations and fit in with the character of the trees along the road.

We will contact residents who will be directly affected by a tree replacement in front of their property to discuss the chosen replacement.
