One of Brampton’s best-kept secrets is its picturesque lakes and river systems. There are 14 freshwater lakes within the urban boundaries of Brampton, making it unique for such a large and growing city . Brampton’s water system is a defining component of the city both in its role in shaping the present urban form and identity, and in the services it delivers to the community.
The City of Brampton is committed to improving the sustainability of the city, with its efforts guided by the Brampton Grow Green Environmental Master Plan and Council endorsement of the Brampton Eco Park Strategy in 2020. Shortly thereafter, Council directed City Staff to develop recommendations on how to recreationally and naturally enhance Brampton’s lakes.
This Lake Enhancement Strategy is the first example of an Eco Park lens being applied to community parks and signature natural features that service and attract a broad range of users and community members.
