The School Streets pilot project is an approved action (action 90) in the Vision Zero Action Plan. It will help Mississauga reach our goal of zero fatal and serious collisions on the road network.
2022 pilot
Three Mississauga schools participated in the first School Streets pilot project in 2022:
- Hillside Public School
- St. Alfred Catholic Elementary School
- Brian W. Fleming Public School
The project included closures along Kelly Road and Havenwood Drive:
The pilot took place at Hillside Public School from May 9 to 27, 2022. Kelly Road was closed between Constable Road and Brookhurst Road Monday to Friday during the following times:
- 8:15 a.m. to 8:50 a.m. for morning drop-off
- 2:30 to 3:20 p.m. for afternoon pickup
The pilot took place at St. Alfred Catholic Elementary School and Brian W. Fleming Public School from May 16 to June 3, 2022.
Havenwood Drive was closed between Tyneburn Crescent and the Brian W. Fleming Public School driveway Monday to Friday from 2:30 to 3:40 p.m.
After the pilot ended, a survey found that the majority of community members supported the initiative. We also found that School Streets were an effective tool for increasing active school transportation.
