with tree-lined roads

These are invariably trees. Roads is more generic than avenues, streets, and alleys.

Nasadzenia alejowe wzdłuż dróg znalazły odzwierciedlenie na tzw. mapach Schröttera opracowanych w latach 1796–1802, na których oznaczono drzewa przede wszystkim wzdłuż dróg krajowych i pocztowych.

tree avenues. tree alleys, alleys of trees

In landscaping, an avenue (from the French), alameda (from the Portuguese and Spanish), or allée (from the French), is traditionally a straight path or road with a line of trees or large shrubs running along each side, which is used, as its Latin source venire ("to come") indicates, to emphasize the "coming to," or arrival at a landscape or architectural feature.

Tree avenue or tree alley (allée)

Tree avenues or tree alleys are planted trees lining straight roadways and entrance drives in order to enhance the approach to mansions or manor houses. Sometimes the avenues are in double rows on each side of a road. Trees preferred for alleys were selected for their height and speed of growth, such as poplar, beech, lime, and horse chestnut. In the American antebellum era South, the southern live oak was typically used, because the trees created a beautiful shade canopy.
Sometimes tree avenues were designed to direct the eye toward some distinctive architectural building or feature, such as a chapels, gazebos, or architectural follys.
