2. Public domain projects2.8 TREE PLANTING STRATEGYStrong planting of street trees can make ahuge impact on the ecology and comfort ofa place. Many Wollongong streets are verywide and can be planted with ornamentaland shade trees.The following are guiding principles for a TreePlanting Strategy (See Figure 2.4):• enhance the city centre microclimate byusing planting to improve physical comfortthrough manipulation of temperature(e.g. sunlight and shade), softening of windmovement and control of reflected light;• select and locate trees to enhance the visualconnections along streets and to link thebeach, parks, reserves and civic spacesboth within and adjacent to the city centre;• select local tree species to reinforcethe identity and visual character ofWollongong city centre;• create an ongoing city ecology by usingappropriate species for the area, exposureand topography; and• solar access – East-West streets shouldhave tall canopy or deciduous species toallow sun to street and ground plane; and• retain existing trees in residential streetscurrently planted.A detailed design tree planting strategywill be outlined in a separate Public DomainTechnical Manual.14 WOLLONGONG CITY CENTRE CIP 2007
