Trees are an important part of Maple Ridge’s urban landscape and play a key role in community health, livability, and climate resilience.

From the urban centre and residential neighbourhoods, to parks and farmland, trees help clean air and water, cool streets and buildings, support biodiversity, and enhance recreation.

RidgeView Mapping

To find out if a tree is on City or private property, check RidgeView, the City’s online mapping tool, and contact the City to confirm details before doing any work.
