New overpass on Mississauga Road improves travel between Brampton and Caledon
BRAMPTON, ON (January 28, 2026) — Peel Region recently reached a key milestone in their upgrades to Mississauga Road. A new bridge overpass that separates Mississauga Road from the CN Rail tracks now redirects traffic over the tracks, which improves safety and efficiency of both the roadway and rail transportation systems.
This project, in partnership with CN Rail, serves to enhance connectivity and enable growth in the City of Brampton Heritage Heights secondary plan (for the northwest Brampton area) and southwest Caledon, while supporting the future rail service expansion of Metrolinx’s Kitchener line.
Traffic on Mississauga Road will remain a single lane in both directions through summer 2026, when construction is scheduled to be completed.
The widening and upgrades to Mississauga Road include:
- Expansion of Mississauga Road from two to six lanes between Bovaird Drive and Sandalwood Parkway.
- Widening of Sandalwood Parkway to Wanless Drive from two to four lanes.
Additional features will include:
- A new multi-use pathway along the east side of Mississauga Road for pedestrians and cyclists.
- Upgraded streetlighting, landscaping, and boulevard improvements.
- Enhanced intersections and traffic signals for improved safety and efficiency.
- The comprehensive project aims to improve traffic flow, safety, and accessibility for all road users.
The new Mississauga Road overpass is more than an infrastructure upgrade - it’s a vital connection that improves safety, reduces delays, and supports the future growth of Brampton and Caledon. This milestone demonstrates Peel Region’s commitment to building a transportation network that keeps people and goods moving efficiently, while preparing for tomorrow’s needs.
