Ontario Paves Way for Rural Transit Solutions

Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada

Seventeen recipients across Ontario will be able to establish or enhance their transit systems, thanks to more than $3.7 million in federal investments through the Rural Transit Solutions Fund (RTSF).

These investments will enable communities across the region to modernize, expand, and improve their local transit systems, enhancing service reliability, accessibility, and overall user experience. Planned upgrades may include new vehicles, shelters, accessible stops, scheduling technology, and service enhancements. In some communities, funding will also support feasibility studies to better understand and improve current transit systems and identify opportunities to establish a new transit service.

These projects will provide residents with better access to affordable, dependable, and environmentally friendly transportation options, helping them connect to workplaces, schools, healthcare services, and local businesses.
