Mississauga is launching an ambitious update to its Cycling Master Plan, aiming to build a safer, more connected cycling network throughout the city. City officials are calling on residents to take part in shaping the future of cycling by providing feedback on what a comprehensive, user-friendly system should look like.
The plan outlines a vision for a continuous network of cycling infrastructure that includes bike lanes, cycle tracks, multi-use trails, and park pathways—designed for people of all ages and abilities. City leaders say the goal is to make cycling a safer, more accessible, and more comfortable part of everyday life in Mississauga.
Updated every five years, the Cycling Master Plan acts as a blueprint for expanding infrastructure and programs in response to shifting community needs and updated design guidelines. This year’s revision will focus on improving connections across the city, applying a more equitable approach to infrastructure development, and implementing a five-year plan to build out the network with broad public and partner support.
Residents—whether they cycle regularly, occasionally, or are just considering it—are being encouraged to contribute their ideas and experiences. City officials emphasize the importance of hearing from a wide range of voices to ensure the plan reflects the diverse needs of Mississauga’s communities.
Opportunities to get involved include an in-person open house on June 17 at city hall, a virtual session on June 19 (registration required), and a series of community pop-up events on June 21 at Clarkson Community Centre, June 24 at Burnhamthorpe Community Centre, June 25 at Meadowvale Community Centre, and June 26 at Malton Community Centre. An online survey is also available until July 6.
Feedback gathered from these engagements will inform the updated Cycling Master Plan, with a final report expected to be presented to city council this fall.
