Changing Lanes

The City of Mississauga’s Changing Lanes Project will update, develop and implement new tools for staff, developers, and other street providers to ensure our streets are safe and more convenient for all users. The Changing Lanes project will:

  • Develop a new street classification system, to be included in Mississauga’s Official Plan
  • Deliver a Complete Streets Guide for streets in Mississauga, updating our approach to street planning and design
  • Determine a prioritized list of street improvement projects to help efficiently deliver safer, more complete, streets
  • Undertake a thorough review and update of our road engineering design standards

COVID-19 Community Engagement Update: While we continue to respond to this pandemic, we are working hard to deliver essential services and projects to keep our City moving and safe. While we can’t connect in-person at this time, we still want to connect! Please find on this site the ways you will be kept updated on this project's progress.


At-a-Glance: Complete Streets

Complete Streets guidelines and policies work to ensure that multiple types of street users can be accommodated and feel comfortable and safe sharing our streets. This includes pedestrians, cyclists, public transportation users and drivers. Measures can include installing cycling facilities, building sidewalks (where not already existing), adding dedicated public transit lanes, and implementing measures to slow down traffic.

    The draft Complete Streets Guide is a 'made in Mississauga' approach to street design and decision-making, reflecting the needs and concerns of the community while incorporating best practice from national organizations, peer cities, and advocacy groups. Please let us know what you think by May 1, 2022.
