Peel Region remains committed to uninterrupted service delivery during the transition outlined in the Peel Transition Implementation Act, 2024, introduced by the Ontario government on December 12, 2024. If passed, this legislation would transfer responsibility for regional roads and stormwater infrastructure to Brampton, Caledon, and Mississauga by July 1, 2026, or as determined by the Minister. Waste Collection in Mississauga, Brampton and Caledon would also transfer to the cities of Mississauga, Brampton and the Town of Caledon. Peel Region will continue to manage Community Recycling Centres (CRC) along with transfer, processing, and disposal services.
