Brampton has a vision for a high quality of community life, a prosperous and diversified economy, excellence in local government and an efficient transportation network. The City of Brampton has three main trail systems that run north and south throughout the City. They are: Etobicoke Creek Trail that leads to Brampton’s downtown/entertainment hub, Chinguacousy Trail that highlights Donald M. Gordon Chinguacousy Park and Professor’s Lake Trail featuring Professor’s Lake Park. Brampton’s pathways set them apart from other communities. They celebrate the City’s heritage and define its character. The trails offer a wide range of experiences both in natural and urban contexts, seamlessly blending with neighbourhoods and natural areas.
