The federal government recently announced some additional funding for municipalities that included an additional “municipal infrastructure top up fund”.
Halton Region will receive $16 million in total and the Town of Milton will receive roughly $2.7 million. In the past these funds will be used for transit, roads and other infrastructure projects that are ready to go.
This funding is a good news story for Milton as it doesn’t come with the usual restrictions from gas tax funding and can be allocated to other projects that are ready to go. We welcome all opportunities to work with the other levels of government when it comes to additional much needed infrastructure funding.
