Dundas BRT
Environmental Project Report update
The Environmental Project Report (EPR) was available for a 30-day review period from February 23, 2022 to March 25, 2022. On April 27, 2022, the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks issued a Notice to Proceed with the municipal transit project in accordance with Ontario Regulation 231/08. As the final step of the Transit Project Assessment Process (TPAP), Metrolinx and the City of Mississauga have issued a Statement of Completion in accordance with Ontario Regulation 231/08. We have also made available, online, our revised Environmental Project Report (EPR), EPR Errata, and revised Stage 1 Archaeological Assessment.
