In progress City project

Credit Meadows park expansion

The City is developing new trails at Credit Meadows that will connect the park to its northern expansion area (the former Harris Lands).

Project overview

This expansion will provide new park space, trails and two pedestrian bridges to residents in Mississauga and is supported by the Credit River Park Strategy (2013). Public engagement for the park was completed as part of the Credit River Park Strategy (2013). Additionally, public engagement for the pedestrian bridge locations and connecting trails was completed as part of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (2021) (MCEA) process.

The MCEA was completed in March 2021 confirming the preferred route as Alternative 3 – Southern Route.

The Credit Meadows park expansion will follow the recommendations of the MCEA and be developed in phases over time.

The following park features will be included in Phase 1 of construction, as budget allows:

In the southern portion of Credit Meadows, multi-use trails will connect the existing parking lot at Creditview Road to the pedestrian bridges while minimizing disturbance to existing trees, natural areas, woodlands and meadows.

The City is assessing the existing informal trails and their impact on the land. No decision has been made on their inclusion within the permanent trail connection. There are currently no plans to manage or change these trails.

Phase 1 construction has begun and is scheduled to be complete in spring 2025.

Community engagement

A focused and targeted virtual public meeting took place on February 2, 2022. Residents in the surrounding area of the park were invited to attend. Staff presented the proposed trail alignments and provided opportunities for residents to give feedback.

There will be other opportunities in the future for residents to share their input on upcoming phases of development.
