SCHEDULED WATER SUPPLY INTERRUPTION NOTICE – 1068 Edgeleigh Ave, Mississauga – Thursday, July 10th, 2025, from 12:00pm- 5:00pm

By Resources, Ward 1

The Peel Region 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 do this work.

Your water will be turned off on Thursday, July 10th, 2025, from 12:00pm- 5:00pm. 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 water interruption

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)

Stop on red, protect a life ahead

By Uncategorized

The City reminds drivers that they must do a complete stop at a red light, including when making a right turn.

July 3, 2025

Running a red light is dangerous and illegal, and it continues to be a problem at many major Mississauga intersections. According to CAA’s study at 20 intersections in Canada, one in every 770 pedestrians and one in every 500 cyclists in the country was involved in a high risk or critical risk near-miss. The majority of these near-misses involve right-turning vehicles (55 per cent for pedestrians and 50 per cent for cyclists). Running a red light means driving through an intersection after a traffic light turns red or not coming to a complete stop at a red light before making a right turn.

Running a red light has serious consequences and may result in a collision, life-altering injury or death. The City of Mississauga is reminding drivers to stop at red lights to help protect your own life and others – whether it’s a pedestrian, cyclist, transit user, passenger or another driver.

Stop on red, protect a life ahead

Drivers must come to a complete stop at red lights

Running a red light is considered aggressive driving that significantly contributes to collisions in the city. By law, drivers must stop at a red light and not enter the intersection. This includes before making a right turn. If drivers are making a right turn, they must come to a complete stop and check for pedestrians, cyclists and other traffic before proceeding. When the light turns yellow, drivers should slow down to a stop unless it’s unsafe to do so.

Peel Region has installed 19 red light cameras in Mississauga as a safety initiative to deter drivers from running red lights.

Traffic signal with red light

City’s review of 20 intersections

In 2023, the City led a review of intersections across Mississauga. Based on observations of driver behaviour at 20 intersections, it is estimated that an average of more than 240 drivers per year fail to stop at a red light at each location. That is more than 4,800 red light violations in one year at just 20 intersections. With hundreds of traffic signals across the city, this is a growing safety risk.

Working towards Vision Zero by improving intersections

The City is working towards the long-term Vision Zero goal of zero traffic-related fatalities and serious injuries on Mississauga roads. The City’s Vision Zero Action Plan has 99 actions that are being implemented over the next few years. This includes education around reminding drivers to come to a complete stop at red lights.

To learn more about other Vision Zero initiatives and actions, visit mississauga.ca/visionzero.

If you see a vehicle involved in dangerous and aggressive behaviour, you can report it to Peel Regional Police’s Road Watch program online: peelpolice.ca/en/report-it/make-a-report-online.aspx#What-types-of-reports-can-I-file-online

Project 19-2215/19-1120 Lakeshore Trunk Sewer and Zone 1 Subtransmission Main project

By Construction, Resources, Ward 1

Streets affected: Lakeshore Road from Jack Darling Memorial Park to Elmwood Avenue, Wesley Avenue, Pine Avenue, Front Street North

Construction details

To support growth in South Peel and optimize the sanitary sewer collection system through the Lakeshore corridor, Peel Region is constructing a 2400mm diameter sanitary sewer and 750mm diameter watermain along Lakeshore Road, from Jack Darling Memorial Park to Elmwood Avenue.

Access the project map for overview of project.

  • Watermains are underground pipes that bring tap water from our water treatment plants to your neighbourhood. As our population grows, we need to build larger watermains to keep providing high quality water services
  • Sanitary sewers are underground pipes that carry wastewater from your home or business to a wastewater treatment plant. Wastewater is created when water goes down the drain or is flushed down the toilet. As our population grows, we need to build larger sewers to keep providing high quality wastewater services.

About the project

The new 2400mm sanitary sewer will be installed underground by a tunnel boring machine. There will be construction compounds along Lakeshore Road at Jack Darling Memorial Park, at Richards Memorial Park, on Pine Avenue, on Wesley Avenue, Front Street North (within the parking lot and Marina Park area), and the city parking lot at Elmwood Avenue. These compounds are required to insert the tunnel boring machine, mine the tunnel, install the sanitary sewer pipe, and to install access maintenance holes along the route at strategic locations for future sanitary sewer connections.

The new 750mm watermain will be installed by both open cut and trenchless methods, with the section of watermain from Shawnmarr Road to Elmwood Avenue N installed in tunnel via a microtunnel boring machine. Compounds will be required where the tunnel boring machine is being inserted underground and pipe installed.

Where the watermain is being installed within an excavation on the roadway, lane closures will be required.
