$2.8M Secured for PEI Capital Transit Funding

Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada

By working closely with its partners across Canada, the federal government is ensuring that more Canadians will be able to live near public transit, connecting them to jobs, services, and their communities.

Through the new Canada Public Transit Fund's Baseline Funding stream, the T3 Transit municipalities of Charlottetown, Stratford and Cornwall, will receive an annual funding allocation of over $2.8 million over 10 years. Funding will upgrade, replace, or modernize the T3 Transit system's infrastructure, and maintain it in a state of good repair.

This investment, beginning in 2026 until 2036, will help increase the housing supply and affordability as part of complete, transit-oriented communities, while helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the impacts of climate change.
