The new National Trade Corridors Fund call for proposals supports projects that will build a strong supply chain capacity, address current infrastructure and bottleneck issues and stimulate the Canadian economy in this post-COVID-19 pandemic
Under the new call, Transport Canada advances funding under two investment themes:
- Strengthening Canada’s connections to global markets will target projects that support fluid and reliable trade flows between Canada and global markets, including the United States and Mexico. This theme considers projects that enable an increase in, or generation of new exports, and that improve the transportation system’s efficiency and reliability for Canadian supply chains.
- Building internal trade corridors will target projects that support the resiliency of Canadian goods trade and supply chains by alleviating capacity constraints and bottlenecks along regional and inter-provincial trade corridors. Other objectives include strengthening modal interconnectivity and operability, and improve producers’ access to markets, industrial centres and/or multimodal hubs and gateways.
The new call accepts expressions of interest starting today until March 31, 2022. Successful applicants will be invited to submit a comprehensive project proposal by June 30, 2022.
