With the goal of improving transportation for youth, seniors and persons living with disabilities, Ontario has announced a new pilot grant program. As of today, 11 municipalities have been selected to receive up to $100,000 to provide better transportation services through community resources.

The communities of Atikokan, Terrace Bay, Papineau-Cameron, Haliburton, Black River-Matheson, Grey, Tillsonburg, Georgina, Simcoe, Pelham and Prescott & Russell will be receiving funding for their respective projects.

“The government of Ontario is committed to ensuring better access to transportation services for all residents, so that they can stay connected to their communities and maintain an active lifestyle. Our transportation investments like the Community Transportation Pilot Grant Program help build stronger communities,” says Steven Del Duca, Minister of Transportation.
