Study: Transportation networks and commuting options | Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM):

December 31, 2023

Value

Grant: Up to 50% of eligible costs to a maximum of $175,000.

Description

We fund feasibility studies of initiatives that may reduce pollution in Canadian communities by improving transportation systems and networks or encouraging people to switch to less polluting transportation options. This funding helps Canadian cities and communities of all sizes reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) and improve their air quality.

Eligible Applicants

All Canadian municipal governments; Municipal partners applying in partnership with a municipal government.

Eligible Expenses

Your study may compare several options or assess the capacity of one option to do at least one of the following:

  • Reduce the number of vehicles on the road, the number of kilometres they travel, or the amount of time they spend transporting people or goods
  • Get people to use their vehicles more efficiently or switch to less polluting forms of transportation (i.e., a modal shift to public transit, walking, or cycling).

Your feasibility study should assess the feasibility (e.g., technical, financial) of an initiative as well as its potential environmental, economic and social impacts.

Examples of what you might study:

  • Ridesharing and ride hailing programs
  • On-demand transportation solutions
  • First- and last-mile solutions
  • Bike sharing
  • Connecting commuters to park-and-ride facilities
  • Active transportation infrastructure (e.g., bike lanes)
  • Walking and cycling networks that promote accessibility and safety
  • Integrated transportation solutions (e.g., bike share and transit) to reduce fuel consumption and promote transit use.
  • Solutions to reduce personal vehicle use, reduce congestion and/or incent Zero Emission Vehicle adoption (e.g., low emission zones, commercial delivery vehicle measures)
