MiWay is enhancing its services to better meet the demands of public transit users in Mississauga.
August 14, 2024
Starting in September, the Route 126 Burnhamthorpe Express will offer express transit services on weekdays, connecting the University of Toronto Mississauga with the Kipling Bus Terminal in Toronto. It’s scheduled to operate every 17 minutes at peak times in the morning and afternoon, complementing the existing Route 26 Burnhamthorpe service with improved weekday and weekend service frequencies. With the introduction of the new 126 Burnhamthorpe Express, Route 76 Burnhamthorpe will be cancelled to prevent service duplication.
To give students more travel options to and from the UTM campus MiWay is launching a new express route and increasing the service frequency on Route 44 Mississauga Road and Route 110 University Express. These service frequency improvements will help meet the increased customer demand during the school year.
With increased ridership demand and the availability of additional service hours that were approved by City Council at the beginning of the year, the routes below will have increased service:
For more information on these and other MiWay service changes that take effect on Monday, Sept. 2, please visit the MiWay website.

Metrolinx advises of upcoming GO service changes that will impact the community on the Lakeshore West line.
Metrolinx conducts comprehensive reviews and adjustments to GO Transit schedules throughout the year. This is done to ensure that services align with customer needs and resources are allocated to where they are most needed. Starting Saturday, August 31, we’re expanding and adjusting GO bus service across the network to better meet customer needs, including new express route options, additional trips, and more service to post-secondary institutions.
Service to post-secondary institutions returns and we’re bringing your community even more options for back to school, including new routes and express options.
We’re also adding more bus trips on some routes during busy periods to your community with more options when they need them most. More trips on the following routes:
We’re also adjusting schedules to better reflect actual travel times and to improve connections, with some trips departing up to 25 minutes earlier or later.

The Peel Region Public Works department regularly maintains and repairs the water system to make sure you have a consistent supply of quality drinking water. Sometimes we must turn off your water supply while we do this work.
Your water will be turned off on Friday August 23rd, 2024, between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. If we need to reschedule this work due to weather or other circumstances, we will let you know the new date and time.
Property owner/manager responsibilities during a water interruption
As a property owner/manager, it is your responsibility to:
• Ensure maintenance, mechanical or plumbing staff are on site during the water interruption, as it may affect internal systems that rely on water such as boilers, fire suppression, and alarms.
• Notify the fire alarm company if the interruption could affect an alarm system.
• Have a fire watch completed during the water interruption, as the building’s sprinkler protection system will not function when the water supply is shut off.
After the water interruption
When we turn the water back on, air in the pipes may make the water cloudy and your plumbing may vibrate or make noise. We recommend removing the air by slowly turning on your taps from the lowest to the highest faucet in the building (that is, starting in the basement/first floor, and finishing on the top floor). You will likely need to run the water for 10 to 30 seconds. Run the water until it is clear, and any vibration or noise has stopped.
Important note
After the water is turned back on, we recommend checking the water meter (usually located in the basement). If it is leaking, call Water Meter Installations Dispatch at:
• 905-791-7800, extension 3226 (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. – Monday to Friday)
• 905-791-7800 extension 4409 (after hours or statutory holidays)
