Moving Mississauga
The City of Mississauga is dedicated to developing a transit-oriented city by providing affordable and convenient public transit, and encouraging carpooling and active transportation such as walking and cycling. There are several City initiatives underway to help you take action on air quality, climate change and traffic congestion.
Transit
When you use transit, you’re helping the environment. Did you know? One MiWay bus is able to eliminate 40 vehicles from the road, save 70,000 litres of fuel and keep 168 tonnes of pollutants out of the atmosphere each year (Environment Canada).
