The Town of Caledon has been given the opportunity to convert a 36 km stretch of the former Orangeville Brampton railway corridor, that runs through our town, into a multi-use trail. This section of the proposed trail runs from Orangeville to Mississauga, with the total length of the corridor being 51 km.
Visit HaveYourSayCaledon.ca/CRT for engagement opportunities as they become available.
The CRT Project will:
- Connect the communities in Caledon as well as Orangeville, Brampton and Mississauga;
- Promote walking and cycling for recreation and the enjoyment of nature;
- Support healthy living, economic development and tourism opportunities; and
- Help build a healthier Town.
The CRT Project includes 3 major phases:
- Phase 1: Initial consultation, defining the scope, safety review of the corridor under interim conditions, public consultation to inform preliminary design
- Phase 2: Preliminary design, public consultation on preliminary design, completion of relevant studies
- Phase 3: Detailed design, construction
Background:
On July 15, 2022, the Municipalities of Caledon, Brampton and Mississauga purchased 51km of the railway corridor which runs from the Caledon-Orangeville boundary to just north of Streetsville. This railway will be converted into a trail – linking the municipalities and unifying the Trans Canada Trail system.
