Downtown Brampton Streetscape Revitalization | City of Brampton

[Allandale25]

There wasn't a thread on this topic, Downtown Brampton Streetscape Revitalization, so I've created one. This is the same title used by the CIty of Brampton. There are other downtown Brampton-related topics here:

• Downtown Brampton Flood Protection Project - Environmental Assessment​

• Brampton Centre for Innovation | 48m | 9s | City of Brampton | Diamond Schmitt​

• Brampton: Queen Street RT​

• Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx​

There was also a reference to this concept during the Brampton 2040 Vision process/study (HT @Northern Light): https://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/brampton-2040-vision.28542/

Here is the page by the City for this project and it contains all relevant links:

The CIty and its politicians will be doing social media on this.

Are there updated renderings? I would like to see the approved design elements.

The last time Downtown Brampton got a major streetscape makeover was in the late 1980s, so this is long overdue. However, I wonder if it will just get dug up again once the LRT extension is funded.
