Help us make our city greener!

Project Information

The City of Adelaide is drafting an Urban Greening Strategy to help guide our priorities for greening into the future. The City of Adelaide is committed to protecting and improving our natural environment. Our Urban Greening Strategy is designed to set out our goals and ensure our ongoing efforts contribute to the thriving of the natural surroundings.

Your ideas, comments and feedback about greening in the City of Adelaide can shape how we plan, grow and expand nature in the face of a changing climate.

Through this engagement, we are aiming to:

• Let's Get Creative for a Greener Place: We're looking for new ideas on where we can make our spaces even greener, and areas where we can add more plants, trees, and green spaces. Your thoughts will help us plan for a greener city. 
•  Tell Us what’s important to you: We asked what matters most to you when it comes to taking care of the green spaces in our city. We want to understand your priorities and make sure we're working on what's important to you in managing our city's green areas.

The City of Adelaide is the only ‘City in a Park’, with the bustling capital district and inner-city suburbs surrounded by the National Heritage Listed Adelaide Park Lands.

Our tree lined streets, gardens and parks offer high quality public spaces that are valued for heritage, cultural and social reasons, used for a variety of activities, support urban biodiversity and enable connections with nature.

An Urban Greening Strategy will focus priorities, investment and outcomes to help achieve our tree canopy cover targets and deliver green infrastructure that is resilient in the face of a changing climate and reflective of the community’s desires for the future.

What happens next?

Community feedback/submissions will be workshopped internally as the Urban Greening Strategy is drafted. A final draft will be released for community consultation in 2024.
