Major Transit Station Areas (MTSA) are mixed-use, transit-supportive neighbourhoods that provide easy access to local amenities, jobs, housing and recreation opportunities. MTSAs generally include lands within a 10-minute walk (500-800 metres) of a rapid transit station or stop. They are located primarily along existing or planned transit corridors (e.g. GO Train, Light Rail Transit, Bus Rapid Transit).
Why MTSAs are important
As Mississauga continues to grow, the Province of Ontario is directing this growth to areas that can support it. This includes MTSAs in Mississauga.
The City has been developing its own detailed MTSA policies to align with the Provincial and Regional requirements. These policies will address MTSA specific height requirements, land uses, minimum densities and other policies.
Learn more about how this affects Mississauga
The City is hosting an online information session on April 26, 2022 at 6:30 p.m. to present the proposed city-wide MTSA policies and how they will work with other related City projects.

On Wednesday, April 6, the City of Mississauga is holding a live, virtual information session on how we’re tackling the housing crisis in our City and working to make housing more affordable.
Residents will learn about the actions Mississauga is taking to create more housing supply and make it more affordable. The session will also address the City’s concerns with approaches to housing affordability and planning, as proposed by the Province’s Housing Affordability Task Force, which could significantly change Mississauga neighbourhoods without making housing more affordable.
The event will include a Question & Answer session. Read More
Like many municipalities, Mississauga is facing a housing crisis. Costs continue to climb and too many people are being priced out of the market. In response to the housing crisis, the Government of Ontario commissioned a Housing Affordability Task Force to make recommendations about how to address housing supply and affordability.
While the City of Mississauga supports building more housing, we are concerned that the recommendations in the Task Force miss the mark. In fact, if the recommendations are implemented as currently written, they could have a devastating effect on our neighbourhoods without making housing more affordable.
Many of the recommendations are a ‘one-size fits all’ for the entire province and could make our neighbourhoods look like this:
Mississauga supports infill development and greater density in our neighbourhoods, but where it makes sense and with proper consultation through the local planning process. One-size-fits-all housing solutions just won’t work. Public consultation and local planning is important. We want to plan our communities together.
Tell Your MPP to Protect Local Communities The City’s response to the Task Force recommendations has been shared with the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing to consider before introducing legislation.
The City does not support recommendations that:
· Limit public consultation on future developments
· Lower design standards and erase heritage
· Reduce our ability to plan our city in our own way
· Create a financial risk for the development of new infrastructure and parkland in our city and put the burden for growth on existing taxpayers If you want to take action, tell your MPP that one-size-fits-all planning doesn’t work. More public input is needed before final decisions are made.
Mississauga has a plan to build more housing and make housing more affordable. Learn more at Mississauga.ca/housing.

The Lakeshore Transportation Studies include three infrastructure projects in the Lakeview, Port Credit and Clarkson communities that build from the 2019 Lakeshore Connecting Communities Transportation Master Plan. Each project requires a specific type of environmental review.
1. Lakeshore Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Study
The City of Mississauga is developing the preliminary design and completing the Transit Project Assessment Process (TPAP) for the Lakeshore Bus Rapid Transit Project (BRT). The Lakeshore BRT is planned to run for two kilometres along Lakeshore Road from the Etobicoke Creek to East Avenue. This project has received funding through the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) and will have an expedited timeline for development. Learn more about the ICIP funding granted to the City of Mississauga.
Learn more about the Lakeshore BRT Study and the TPAP.
2. Lakeshore Complete Street Study
The City is also developing the preliminary design and completing the Schedule C Class Environmental Assessment (EA) for Lakeshore Road and Royal Windsor Drive. This study will consider a ‘Complete Street’ approach to improve the experience for people travelling along the Lakeshore corridor from East Avenue to the Oakville border.
Learn more about the Lakeshore Complete Street Study and the Schedule C Class EA.
3. New Credit River Active Transportation Bridge Study
The City is developing the preliminary design and completing the Schedule B Class EA for a new Active Transportation bridge over the Credit River north of Lakeshore Road. This bridge will enhance mobility across the river for people walking, rolling and cycling.
Learn more about the Credit River Active Transportation Bridge and the Schedule B Class EA.
The map below shows the study areas for each of the three projects that make up the Lakeshore Transportation Studies.
