The City of Brampton is seeking feedback on the following five new projects listed at www.brampton.ca/engage:
Light Rail Transit Extension
Until July 31, visit a virtual open house and provide feedback on the Light Rail Transit (LRT) Extension. Extending the planned Hurontario LRT on Main Street, from the Brampton Gateway Terminal at Steeles Avenue to the Brampton GO Station, is a key transit priority and city-building project for the City. A preferred route will be recommended based on a number of criteria associated with the natural, social, economic and cultural environment as well as transportation factors.
Williams Parkway Review
A survey on the Williams Parkway Review is available online until August 1 and comments can be made on aspects of the project including a wider pedestrian path, safer bike path, dedicated transit lane or more road space for cars.
Vodden Street East/West Cycling Corridor
Outlined as a key priority in the Brampton 2040 Vision, the city is building a continuous and connected east-west cycling corridor with separated bike lanes. This cycling corridor will provide cyclists with a more comfortable and safe cycling option and provide access to existing north-south trails. Learn more information and share feedback on approximately seven kilometres of cycling facilities along Vodden Street, Howden Boulevard and Hanover Road. The survey will remain open until July 31.
Third Transit Facility
Brampton Transit is responding to rapid growth, planning a third transit maintenance and operations facility. A virtual open house is available online until July 15.
Tourism Strategy
Residents, visitors and stakeholders are invited to comment on the city’s first ever Tourism Strategy. The Strategy will address Brampton’s short and long-term tourism growth, focusing on economic recovery and hyperlocal/local initiatives aligning with the City’s Economic Recovery Strategy. Engagement opportunities include a resident survey open until July 20 and a virtual public consultation on Tuesday, July 14 at 7 pm.
“Feedback is essential to us continuing to build a green, healthy and safe Mosaic City,” said Mayor Patrick Brown. “I encourage all Bramptonians to participate in these public engagement opportunities, and learn more about the City’s many ongoing transformative projects.”
