Alberta’s Green Transit Incentives Program (GTRIP) is being bolstered by the federal government’s Public Transit Infrastructure Fund (PTIF) and municipal programs to support new digital signs and other transit projects across the province.
Among 89 projects announced so far, the PTIF has earmarked $90,000 for real-time passenger information screens for Grande Prairie Transit (pictured) and $96,600 for NextBus arrival signs for the Bow Valley Regional Transit Services Commission in Banff and Canmore, Alta.
“We are ensuring Albertans get the most out of our transit investments,” says Brian Mason, federal minister of infrastructure and transportation.
