Planting is underway in Birkenhead for this season, with trees planted around Vittoria Street and Beckwith Street and in the grounds of Priory Parish Primary School.
In Speke, lots of consultation with residents has been taking place, with an overwhelmingly positive response. 78% of residents who responded are eager to receive a free tree outside their home and have selected their preferred species. Planting will be underway over the next few weeks on Damwood Road, Alderwood Avenue, Millwood Road and Eastern Avenue.
In Everton, residents and businesses along Breck Road, Breckfield Road and Mere Lane will be witnessing splashes of green transform their streets, as trees are introduced to the area.
In St Helen's, Eurolink, Lea Green Road, Jubit's Lane and Clock Face Road will all be transformed by the planting of street trees. There has been a great, positive response from residents who have described the scheme as "a brilliant idea."
In Sefton, large scale planting will soon be underway to green routes between housing and areas of employment in the Seaforth and Litherland areas.
In Knowsley, street trees will be brightening up County Road, Moorgate Road and Didsbury Close.
This planting will help to create green routes to areas of employment, encouraging people to walk and cycle to places of work, education and training. They will also improve the street scene and make the area more appealing to investors, trap harmful pollutants, provide a cooling effect on hot days and create a habitat for wildlife.
