The draft Cycling Master Plan will be shared with residents at a public information session
on Monday, April 19, 2010.
“We developed the draft plan by taking into account international best practices as well
as relevant legislation and guidelines. Most importantly though, over 1,000 Mississauga
citizens have already provided their input,” said Anne Farrell, planner, Community
Services. “We are returning to the public after the consultation process to show how their
recommendations have helped shape the final plan.”

provides direction on creating an integrated cycling network of on and off-road routes to
connect communities and destinations throughout the City. The plan focuses on the development
and design of cycling routes, cycling amenities such as parking, education and safety.
Established as a long-term strategy, it will be reviewed every five years.
