The Canada Public Transit Fund (CPTF) is a long-term federal funding program that helps communities build and improve public transit and active transportation infrastructure. By providing stable and predictable funding, the CPTF supports reliable transit services, helps reduce traffic congestion and greenhouse gas emissions, and connects people to jobs, housing, education and community services.
The Town of Oakville has been approved to receive $16 million over the next 10 years through the CPTF’s Baseline Funding Stream to support Oakville Transit initiatives.
