Help shape the future of Launceston’s street trees...plus win one of 3x $50 gift vouchers!

We’re inviting the Launceston community to have their say on the future of our city’s street trees!

The City of Launceston is developing a new Street Tree Master Plan to guide how trees are planted, cared for, and grown in our streets and public spaces. 50th Tree

With only 19% canopy cover across the urban area and low species diversity, we’re aiming high - targeting 40% canopy coverage by 2040, as set out in our award-winning Urban Greening Strategy.

We want to make sure the Street Tree Master Plan reflects your values, needs and local knowledge!

Your feedback will help shape the early development of the Master Plan, with more opportunities to comment once a draft is released later this year. Together, we can create greener, cooler and more liveable neighbourhoods for generations to come.
