LOCALMOTION – IMPROVING LOCAL INFRASTRUCTURE
The objective of the LocalMotion Program is to help accelerate the development of capital projects that make communities greener, healthier and more active and accessible places in which to live. Local governments have been able to take specific actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase physical activity and improve accessibility for seniors and people with disabilities through this program. A complete list of projects approved for funding under the program appears below.
