Through the ecoMOBILITY program announced last year by Mr. Lawrence Cannon, Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Communities, the federal government will invest $4 million over three years in various initiatives to help Canadians protect their health and environment by giving them more sustainable transportation choices.
The ecoMOBILITY program was developed to help reduce emissions from the urban passenger transportation sector by helping municipalities attract residents to less polluting forms of transportation.
The program will make it more convenient for people to reduce personal car use and choose more environmentally friendly options, such as public transit, carpooling, biking or walking.
Considering all the efforts put forward by Ottawa to counter GHG emissions and road congestion, the health and quality of life of Canadians will definitely keep improving in upcoming years. This initiative will make critical transportation infrastructures both economically and environmentally sustainable.
