Description
Lists the grant allocations to each location that receives funding through the Resource Road Program, part of the Strategic Transportation Infrastructure Program. The program provides funding assistance to local municipal road authorities for roads which have experienced significantly increased traffic volumes, particularly involving heavy trucks, associated with the development of value-added processing facilities, resource and other industries, intensified farming operations or high through-put grain elevators. This program provides funding to municipalities to construct or rehabilitate road infrastructure that supports this industrial growth. The program applies to local roads and bridges, including intersection improvements where local roads connect with provincial highways. To be eligible for funding, roads must be open to all publicly-licensed vehicles and not be subject to any municipal general user fees.
