Mitton Streetscape Design

We’re looking towards the future of Mitton Street, and we want to hear from you.

The City is preparing to advance combined sewer separation on Mitton Street between Wellington and Davis Street, necessitating complete reconstruction of the roadway. Before we do that though, we’re moving forward with detailed design work that will consider streetscape improvements and enhanced multi-modal transportation opportunities.

Design and public input

We anticipate the opportunity to provide a complete street approach as part of this project, with design features that will beautify the area, improve safety, and accommodate road users of all ages and abilities, including capacity for pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists.

Mitton Village is a unique neighbourhood. The mixed residential and commercial land uses along Mitton Street make the neighbourhood an important target for revitalization efforts. The design will promote community connections, serving businesses and fostering a sense of community while enabling transportation options for multiple modes of travel.

As we look to develop the concepts that will become the foundation of our design work, it is our top priority to hear from residents and ensure that the newly revitalized area can reflect the vision residents, business owners and the community at large has for our future.

Project scope

The initial phase of the project, from Wellington Street to Davis Street, is tentatively scheduled for 2026, pending budget allocation later this year.

The project will include considerations for:

• Combined sewer separation to strengthen sewer infrastructure against the impacts of extreme weather events
• New watermain, storm and sanitary sewer
• Road reconstruction
• Pedestrian and cycling facility enhancements
• Streetscaping

Future phases, with subsequent budget approval, will provide continuity of the reimagined Mitton Street beyond Davis Street though to George.
