Transportation Engineering

One of the Town of Caledon's top priorities is an effective and efficient transportation system for the future. With a long-term vision of providing a "Balanced Transportation System" for the movement of people and goods, accessible to all Caledon residents, and that reaffirms the Town's objectives to sustainable development, protection of the natural environment, economic vitality, and healthy communities, the Town's Transportation Master Plan envisions the integration of all modes and elements of transportation.

The Multi-Modal Transportation Master Plan, Active Transportation Master Plan, Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA), and development-related transportation investigations like Secondary plans are planned and carried out by the Transportation Engineering Division. The planning of trails, cycling infrastructure, and traffic calming measures within the public right-of-way fall under the purview of transportation engineering.

Speed limits have been reduced on roads across Caledon. View the map to get familiar with speed limit changes.

Southfields Village Parking Strategy Study

The Town of Caledon has launched a Parking Strategy Study for the Southfields Village Community. Southfields is a relatively new residential community with high vehicle dependency and an increasing demand for additional parking options. This high demand is causing an increase in on-street parking, parking of vehicles on narrow boulevards overhanging sidewalks and roadways, widening of driveways, paving of front yards and removal of landscaping, which negatively impacts the appearance of the community. The Town is developing a Parking Strategy to address the parking demand and minimize negative impacts on the neighbourhood.
