2025-2026 Sidewalk, Trail and Engineered Walkway Condition Assessment
Project: Consulting Services for the Collection of Sidewalk, Trail and Engineered Walkway Condition Data and Digital Imagery
Purpose: The Transportation and Works (T&W) and Community Services (CMS) departments of the City of Mississauga aim to assess the current condition of City-owned sidewalks, trails and engineered walkways. The condition assessment will supplement annual sidewalk Minimum Maintenance Standard (MMS) inspections, improve existing inventory data, and assist with identifying and prioritizing renewal needs based on asset management best-practices.
The data collection is conducted by a modified mobility scooter equipped with cameras and other instruments, which may prompt questions from citizens and local law enforcement. This document outlines the data collection process to inform Mississauga residents and business owners on what to expect when the vehicle is present.
