Milton Transit Enhancements

To support the growing population and improve connectivity, Milton Transit is implementing several service upgrades in 2025:

• Sunday service introduction – expanding accessibility for weekend commuters and residents.

• Extended weekday service until 10:30 p.m. – allowing for greater flexibility for evening travel.

• Route expansions in the Boyne and Derry Green areas – addressing growing transit demand in newly developed neighborhoods.

These enhancements align with Milton’s Five-Year Service Plan, ensuring that residents have improved public transportation options as the town continues to grow.

Infrastructure and Road Improvements

Milton is investing $139.5 million into capital projects aimed at improving road infrastructure and public spaces. Key road projects include:

• Urbanization of Nipissing Road – supporting increased traffic flow and pedestrian accessibility.

• Rehabilitation of Ontario Street, Appleby Line, and Milburough Line – enhancing road conditions and improving long-term durability.

• New pedestrian railway crossing in Boyne – facilitating safer pedestrian movement across key transit routes.

• Park redevelopments (Melanie Park & Watson Park) – upgrading public spaces to accommodate the growing population.

Property Tax Adjustments

To fund these essential improvements, Milton’s portion of residential property taxes will increase by 9.89%. When factoring in Halton Region’s budget and additional agencies, the total tax increase is expected to be 6.43%. This adjustment ensures continued investment in community infrastructure, emergency services, and municipal projects.

What This Means for Milton Residents

Milton’s rapid growth brings both opportunities and challenges. With new developments, improved transit, and infrastructure upgrades, the town is working to accommodate its expanding population. However, residents should also be mindful of rising home prices and increased property taxes as part of this transformation.
