SCHEDULED WATER SUPPLY TEST SHUTDOWN – 14 Benson Ave, Mississauga – Friday, October 10th, 2025. From 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM

By Resources, Ward 1

The Region of Peel Public Works department regularly maintains and repairs the water system to make sure you have a consistent supply of quality drinking water. Sometimes we must turn off your water supply while we work on the system or conduct tests.

On Friday, October 10th, 2025. From 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM. Please expect a brief water outage and loss of water pressure while we work in your area.  If we need to reschedule this work due to weather or other circumstances, we will let you know the new date and time.

Property owner/manager responsibilities during a water interruption

As a property owner/manager, it is your responsibility to:

  • Ensure maintenance, mechanical or plumbing staff are on site during the water interruption, as it may affect internal systems that rely on water such as boilers, fire suppression, and alarms.
  • Notify the fire alarm company if the interruption could affect an alarm system.
  • Have a fire watch completed during the water interruption, as the building’s sprinkler protection system will not function when the water supply is shut off.

After the test shutdown

When we turn the water back on, air in the pipes may make the water cloudy and your plumbing may vibrate or make noise. We recommend removing the air by slowly turning on your taps from the lowest to the highest faucet in the building (that is, starting in the basement/first floor, and finishing on the top floor). You will likely need to run the water for 10 to 30 seconds. Run the water until it is clear, and any vibration or noise has stopped.

 

Important note

After the water is turned back on, we recommend checking the water meter (usually located in the basement). If it is leaking, call Water Meter Installations Dispatch at:

  • 905-791-7800, extension 3226 (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. – Monday to Friday)
  • 905-791-7800 extension 4409 (after hours or statutory holidays)

Official groundbreaking ceremony of the Port Credit Active Transportation Bridge

By Announcement, Events, Resources, Stephen’s Initiatives, Ward 1

The City of Mississauga broke ground today on what will be a unique pedestrian cycling bridge (active transportation).

The bridge will offer a direct and easy way to walk or cycle through Memorial Park, connect communities and access to the Port Credit GO station.

“I was honoured to officially break ground for the Port Credit Active Transportation Bridge, a project that will transform how we move through our community and make it even easier to experience all that Port Credit has to offer” says Councillor Stephen Dasko for Ward 1.  The Port Credit BIA, the President and Officers from the Port Credit Royal Canadian Legion, Town of Port Credit Association (TOPCA), Fram Building Group, Diamond Corp, and Brennan Paving were present and participated in the ceremony.

“As Ward Councillor, I am excited to see this project come to life.  The pedestrian cycling bridge has been a long time coming, and one that I have worked tirelessly to bring to our community” says Dasko.

The completed bridge will strengthen the pedestrian and cycling networks, improve access to the waterfront, trails and parks, and support active living by making walking and cycling more convenient.   By prioritizing walking and cycling infrastructure, this will create safer streets, reduce congestion, improve air quality and promote a more connected, vibrant, and sustainable community.

This is a 66-metre-long bridge which will stretch over the Credit River, south of the existing train bridge.  Over the next year, the new bridge will be assembled near the Port Credit Royal Canadian Legion, and in Port Credit Memorial Park. Once assembled, it will be launched over the Credit River.

The bridge will also support Port Credit’s thriving tourism industry. Completion time is anticipated by next fall.

Give your items a second life during Circular Economy Month

By Events, Resources

Repair, reuse, donate and recycle items to extend their usefulness instead of throwing them away.

October 2, 2025

Do you go thrifting, reuse take-out containers, or regularly donate items you no longer need? Then you are already participating in a circular economy that diverts waste from the landfill and helps you save money by reusing items instead of buying new ones. This type of economy empowers consumers to redefine their relationship with the products they buy. And it poses the challenge to find creative ways to reuse items or donate items that others could use.

Celebrate Circular Economy Month this October by participating in various events throughout Mississauga.

Event details

Circular economy pop-up event

Drop by Celebration Square from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Wednesday, October 8 to understand how to properly dispose of, reuse and recycle materials and how these actions can help prevent illegal dumping. Learn what steps the City is taking to reduce waste, test your knowledge with an interactive game and sign up for volunteer programs to keep Mississauga’s parks and trails litter free.

Recycle clothing, textiles and electronics

The City is participating in the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority’s Partners in Project Green collection drive for clothing, textiles and electronics. From October 14 to 26, you can drop off unwanted clothing, textiles and electronics in one of the 13 bins located at various City facilities.

Get it fixed at a Repair Hub

Bring your broken items to our Repair Hub at Hazel McCallion Central Library from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, October 25 to have them restored. Drop-in appointments will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Makerspace workshops

The Library’s makerspaces offer programs to learn about 3D printing, how to use a Cricut machine, sewing machine and a laser cutter. Use these skills to repair items, make gifts and use recycled materials in your creative project.

The library also hosts Handicraft Socials, where individuals can come together to work on their individual craft projects in an informal and welcoming space that is open to all skill levels.

Makerspace programs can be found at Hazel McCallion Central Library, Burnhamthorpe Library, Courtneypark Library, Meadowvale Library and Malton Library.

Recycle spent batteries

Recycle single-use, non-rechargeable batteries at any of the bins located by the customer service areas in Mississauga libraries and community centres. Learn how to prepare batteries for recycling.

Who

All Mississauga residents who want to learn more about repurposing, upcycling and waste reduction.

When

Events take place throughout October 2025.

Where

All events are in person at various locations in Mississauga.

We’re making a difference

The City has hosted many events so far this year to help reduce waste. As part of Earth Day, the City participated in the spring recycling collection drive where more than 3,700 kilograms of clothing and textiles were donated, and more than 4,200 kilograms of e-waste were recycled. The City also offered three repair hubs, two in April and one in August, with an average repair rate of 74 per cent.

Over the summer, the City diverted more than 193 kilograms of food waste from landfill and avoided 2,622 single-use items of waste. This was done at the City’s largest outdoor movie event which took place at Celebration Square every Thursday evening throughout the summer. To minimize single-use items, food truck vendors offered reuseable dishware. Staff and volunteers also had multiple waste-storing stations to properly sort organics and recyclables.

Saving money and going green: Mississauga makes progress on Five-Year Energy Conservation Plan

By Resources

The current five-year plan continues to address climate change and energy usage in City buildings.

September 19, 2025

The City of Mississauga is pleased to share some positive updates as it relates to its fourth Five-Year Energy Conservation Plan: 2024-2028 (ECP) that was released in 2024.

The current five-year plan continues to address climate change and energy usage in City buildings. Last year, the City achieved:

  • A 1.6 per cent reduction in energy consumption, 2.1 per cent reduction in water consumption and 2.8 per cent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, surpassing the City’s annual target of one per cent savings in these categories.
  • A total of 118 EV charging connections across the city, with 88 designated for fleet use and 30 available for public access.
  • Savings of $157,000 in utility costs; and
  • Recognition of Erin Mills Twin Arena with the ENERGY STAR® Building of the Year Award for its ice and curling rinks for the second year in a row.

As the City looks ahead, it will continue to build upon its 2024 successes and focus on:

  • Expanding solar energy: the City will maximize the installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems across its buildings to harness renewable energy.
  • Enhancing ice rink efficiency: ice plant heat recovery systems will be expanded in municipal ice rinks, capturing waste heat and redirecting it for facility use.
  • Optimizing indoor pool operations: applicable indoor pool facilities will be upgraded with pool dehumidification heat recovery and pool drain heat recovery systems to improve energy efficiency and reduce operational costs.
  • Introducing decarbonization technology: implementing heat pump technology during lifecycle renewals will help reduce Mississauga’s carbon footprint and improve energy efficiency, advancing the City’s Climate Change Action Plan.
