2026 Projects
The Town of Milton is building a complete community and investing over $57 million in roads, bridges and stormwater infrastructure in 2026. While this investment reflects the 2026 approved budget, there are also projects being completed this year that were approved in previous budget years.
This investment in the community helps us put the right infrastructure in place to meet community needs and make Milton a Place of Possibility.
What to expect this year
This year, residents can expect road closures and lane restrictions on both main arterial roads and side streets. The Town of Milton extensively coordinates the timing of construction projects with Halton Region and the private sector as much as possible. Notices will be delivered to residents directly affected by construction prior to construction start.
The projects listed blow are critical construction initiatives for 2026, aimed to maintain and develop an efficient civil infrastructure network in Milton.
