About the project
The Milton Education Village (MEV) will be a dynamic urban district, where innovation meets natural wonder. This vision will be realized by the integration of leading academic institutions, integrated long-term care facility, outdoor recreational opportunities, views of the Niagara Escarpment, state-of-the-art research and design facilities and an environmentally-conscious urban design.
The MEV will connect people, business, education, health care, and recreational opportunities through a fully integrated transportation system, accommodating public transit, vehicles, walking and cycling. With a mix of opportunities for young people to learn on-the-job and for forward-thinking businesses to leverage local students and talent, the MEV will be a centre for innovative solutions and education.
The MEV is a critical element of Milton 2051, our long-term vision for our community.
The area is 162 hectares (400 acres) of land centred on the Mattamy National Cycling Centre and bounded by the Niagara Escarpment Plan Area to the north, Tremaine Road to the east, Britannia Road to the south and the Greenbelt Plan Area to the west.
Current status

The Milton Education Village Secondary Plan guides the development of a complete community that blends post-secondary education with a mix of other complementary uses into a comprehensively planned neighbourhood. A copy of the Secondary Plan is available on request.
This planned community will include:
- A mixed use complete community of at least 22,000 people and jobs by 2051.
- An innovation district to accommodate 2,900 knowledge-based jobs.
- Two post-secondary institutions and a long-term care facility.
- A 'main street' village centre and a neighbourhood centre with potential to accommodate retail and service uses.
- A full range and mix of housing in complete walkable neighbourhoods with an elementary school, a high school and parks.
- A development designed to promote active transportation and public transit use, with transit supportive densities.
- A connected and sustainable natural heritage and open space system.
