More trees for Sunbury
Sunbury will get more shade as the Victorian state government invests $3 million in 23 greening projects across two programs. The first program will plant more than 100,000 trees across 13 projects, with $1.5 million directed to suburbs with less tree cover and greater heat exposure. Planting will take place across Melbourne's west and south-east, including 15,000 trees along the Maribyrnong River. The second program will give 10 busy shopping strips and streets a green makeover, including St Albans, Sunshine West, Brunswick and Melbourne's CBD.
