Residents and visitors can expect to see the City’s budget dollars hard at work as the City moves forward with its 2025 construction season. With an estimated budget of more than $117 million*, there are 23 new projects and eight projects continuing from 2024. This includes work on roads, sidewalks, bridges, bike lanes, trails and stormwater infrastructure. This work is essential for keeping road users moving safely and reducing the risk of flooding by managing stormwater.
Construction projects within the City’s Roads and Stormwater Capital Program focus on repairing, maintaining and expanding. This includes road resurfacing, sidewalk construction, bridge repairs, creek erosion control work and rehabilitation, and construction and maintenance of stormwater management facilities, like stormwater ponds, drainage systems and pumping stations.
Construction season highlights for 2025
Active transportation
It’s important that residents can travel actively, whether it’s by foot, bike or mobility device. The City continues to prioritize providing safe, reliable and sustainable transportation options.
Key projects include:
- Construction will begin on a multi-year project to build a new active transportation bridge in Port Credit, with new cycling facilities, pedestrian crossings and intersection improvements.
- Construction will begin on a multi-year project to widen Ninth Line (between Eglinton Avenue West and Derry Road West) to accommodate new cycling facilities.
- Improvements will be completed on the Living Arts Drive active transportation infrastructure, including intersection upgrades, enhancements to pedestrian crossings and pathways, and protected bike lanes.
Stormwater management
The City continues to do construction work to help reduce flood risk, protect property from intense rainfall and preserve waterways and wildlife. This includes maintenance of stormwater infrastructure and erosion prevention and repair along creeks and waterways.
Key projects include:
- Construction of the Doug Leavens Boulevard pumping station to reduce basement water infiltration in the Lisgar area.
- The Malton Flood Relief Project, including installation of a new storm sewer.
- Cooksville Creek improvements and flood protection, including culvert removal and installation of the new King Street bridge.
- Erosion control and rehabilitation work along Etobicoke Creek, Cooksville Creek, Sawmill Creek, Mimico Creek and Sheridan Creek.
Road resurfacing
The City’s Road Resurfacing Program involves replacing asphalt on the road and repairing curbs and sidewalks when needed. With a $30 million investment in the program this year, 72 streets are scheduled to be resurfaced.
When a street is being resurfaced, work can also take place on boulevards, sidewalks and the City’s portion of driveways. It is recommended that residents delay any renovations to their lawn or driveway, including repaving, until the work is complete. Personal items located close to the sidewalk or boulevard, such as lights, sprinklers, décor and temporary fencing, should also be removed to avoid damage. Residents will receive a pre-construction notice in the mail if their street is scheduled for resurfacing this year.
Hazel McCallion Line update
Progress is continuing on Metrolinx’s Hazel McCallion Line. Guideway and track work will continue along the corridor this year, as well as continuation of the elevated guideway over Highway 403. The southern terminus at Port Credit GO Station is advancing. For the latest updates, follow the Hazel McCallion Line on X.

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, May 30th, 2025. From 9:00am to 12:00pm. 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)

Toronto Pearson will be conducting its annual full-scale emergency exercise beginning the evening of Saturday, May 24, 2025, continuing into the early morning hours of Sunday, May 25.
This Transport Canada–mandated exercise is an essential component of our emergency preparedness program and has been conducted annually for more than 30 years. The exercise is designed to test and strengthen emergency response capabilities across the airport community and involves coordination among airport staff, first responders, airline partners, and nearly 200 volunteers.
The exercise will begin at approximately 11:00 p.m. on May 24. It is deliberately scheduled during overnight hours to minimize disruption to regular airport operations. Passengers and flight activity will not be impacted, and operations will continue as normal throughout the event.
Please note: travellers and members of the public may observe an increased presence of emergency responders at the airport during this time. This is part of the exercise and not an actual emergency.
Our media team will post updates on our X channel – @TorontoPearson – including details on when the exercise begins and when it concludes. We encourage you to check our social media for real-time updates.
Mississauga’s award-winning forestry team is a proud leader in sustainability and green initiatives. On May 25, 2024, Mississauga became the first municipality in Ontario to use goat grazing for the control of invasive species in the floodplain of the Credit River at Erindale Park.
This year, we’re bringing the goats back!
Goat grazing is an environmentally-friendly alternative to using herbicides for invasive species control, and can be used in sensitive habitats, around wetlands or on difficult terrain where other control methods may not be feasible.
The goats will be returning to Erindale Park to continue grazing the area, which started last May. Goats consume plants, which eliminates biomass disposal requirements for the city. There are also environmental benefits such as: reducing the use of herbicides and the use of gasoline-powered equipment to control invasive species and stimulating the regrowth of native seedbanks and increase biodiversity.
Stay tuned for more details on goat projects taking place later this summer but help us welcome the goats back to Mississauga by attending the Invasive Species Awareness Fair at Erindale Park from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 24.
Event details
What

Installing more than 100 parking stations will help organize the shared e-bikes and e-scooters while keeping regular bike racks available for personal devices.
May 15, 2025
Parking stations
The new physical parking stations will be introduced and dedicated to the shared e-bikes and e-scooters program. The stations will either be marked with physical infrastructure or have markings or a rubber mat on the ground. They will help keep devices organized in high-demand areas including near GO train stations, City-owned transit terminals and express bus stops. There will also be more parking stations in densely populated areas of Mississauga including all five Business Improvement Areas (Clarkson, Malton, Streetsville, Port Credit and Cooksville), City Centre and Lakefront Promenade districts.
Designated parking areas
All riders must end their trips and park their device at a designated parking area. This can include parking stations or designated parking areas. There will be more than 600 parking areas marked in Lime Technology, Inc. and Bird Canada’s app to help riders properly end their trip.
This year, the City will also be removing the requirement to lock devices to a pole, bike rack or signpost to maintain consistency when parking at a station or a designated parking area.
2024 program highlights
- From June to December 2024, more than 120,000 trips were taken through the shared e-bike and e-scooter program, attracting more than 45,000 unique users.
- Approximately 13 per cent of all trips made in 2024 originated from a Business Improvement Area, while another 13 per cent ended their trips in one. Riders in Mississauga have used the program to reach a variety of destinations across the city, including transit hubs, shopping malls, main street businesses, residential buildings and parks.
- Shared e-bike and e-scooter services have been expanded at the University of Toronto Mississauga (UTM), with two designated parking areas on campus. In 2024, more than 700 trips either began or ended at UTM, with more than 250 unique users.
- Four parking areas were also established next to Sheridan College – Hazel McCallion (Mississauga) Campus, enhancing connectivity for faculty, staff and students. Approximately 1,500 trips were recorded to and from these locations, with more than 700 unique riders.
Compliance and fines
Ninety-six per cent of all trips completed in 2024 followed all program rules and regulations. The service providers issued 4,300 warnings for various types of rider violations, with the most common being improper parking and sidewalk riding.
This year, both service providers will double their fine amounts for rider violations as part of an enhanced compliance strategy. Repeat offenders will receive a $20 fine, with continued violations leading to potential account suspension.
For dangerous riding behaviours, such as carrying a passenger or underage riding, both service providers acknowledge a zero-tolerance policy toward these violations and will suspend user accounts upon receiving a report.
Education
This year, staff will increase education for the shared e-bike and e-scooter program. This includes setting up booths at Community Rides events, organizing pop-up booths in public areas and attending local events. During these events, staff will educate residents on safety guidelines, how to ride, how the updated parking model works and overall program awareness.
Staff are also collaborating with the Peel District School Board and the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board to launch an educational campaign on safe e-scooter use, targeting school-aged children and their parents.
Learn more about the shared e-bike and e-scooter program: mississauga.ca/micromobility
Background
In October 2019, Council supported the recommendation for City staff to look at how a program of shared bikes, e-bikes or e-scooters could be used for travel in Mississauga as part of a Micro-Mobility Program Development Project. Following extensive analysis and community and stakeholder consultation in June 2022, Council approved a recommendation to develop a shared micro-mobility program that offers e-bikes and e-scooters with a mix of parking stations and free-floating parking.
In June 2024, the City partnered with Lime Technology, Inc. and Bird Canada to provide a combined fleet of 300 e-bikes and 900 e-scooters available for rent across Mississauga.
