About this Study

This study is about creating a new vision for Hurontario/Main Street that will examine ways to enhance our travel choices, economic vitality, recreation and entertainment options and overall quality of life.

We will:

• Examine how rapid transit can be introduced along Hurontario/Main Street between Port Credit and downtown Brampton.
• Develop appropriate land use and urban design policies & initiatives that will support rapid transit service.
• Identify potential social, economic, and environmental impacts of various rapid transit routes and technologies.

Directions Report

February 27, 2009 - The Cities of Brampton and Mississauga have released the Hurontario/Main Street Study Directions Report. Based on input received through consultation with city staff, stakeholder groups and the public, this report defines the vision for the evolution of the Hurontario/Main Street corridor into a vibrant, sustainable and pedestrian oriented urban space, connected by a frequent, reliable and comfortable rapid transit service. This vision provides the groundwork for more detailed analysis of transit, land use and urban design alternatives to be completed in the next stage of the project.
