Brampton and Mississauga hold LRT Open Houses

Friday, April 13th, 2012

The Cities of Brampton and Mississauga want to build a light rail transit (LRT) line, as a key part of the future vision for the busy Hurontario / Main Street corridor.

Metrolinx has identified a rapid transit line between Port Credit and downtown Brampton as one of its priority projects for the first 15 years of “The Big Move”, its regional transportation plan.

City staff want you to participate in planning the line and helping to shape decisions, as the project develops.

The Cities are hosting two open houses, where you can meet the design team for the project. They’re experts with international experience, who will develop concepts and alternatives for the project.

During the events, you can talk to project and City staff, see information from the project’s master plan and view early proposals for LRT service. You’ll also learn how you can continue to participate in the process, as the project proceeds.

The events take place:

  • Wednesday, April 25
    From 3 until 8 p.m.,
    Mississauga Civic Centre, The Great Hall,
    300 City Centre Drive
  • Thursday, April 26
    From 3 until 8 p.m.,
    Brampton City Hall, Atrium,
    2 Wellington Street West
