Street Lighting

The City of Mississauga is responsible for the operation and maintenance of over 49,000 street lights within City boundaries. Policy development, budget control and administration are undertaken by City staff. The design, operation and maintenance of all street lighting work is contracted to Enersource Hydro Mississauga Services Inc. It should be noted that the Region of Peel does the initial design and construction of street lighting on Regional roads, after which the plant is transferred to the City for operations and maintenance.

LED Street Lighting Conversion Project

The City of Mississauga is undertaking a citywide Light Emitting Diode (LED) street lighting conversion project from November 2012 until December 2014. All street lights in Mississauga will be converted from the yellow-orange light of traditional High Pressure Sodium (HPS) to the more natural white LED lights.

The new LED street lights will significantly reduce maintenance costs and should result in a 55 per cent reduction in future energy consumption for the City. LED street lights will also increase safety, visibility and reduce light pollution in the sky.
