People will be safer on B.C.’s roads with another round of support for 56 more communities that will further help prevent serious injuries and deaths.

Premier David Eby has issued the following statement marking Earth Day:

People in Metro Vancouver will benefit from shorter wait times and enhanced service frequency as a result of significant new funding for TransLink.

New measures are coming that will improve the ability of local governments to build more affordable, livable communities for people and help tenants facing eviction from redevelopment.

British Columbia’s electric highway will get a supercharge this year with $30 million from Budget 2024 to add more than 500 public charging stations to more than 5,000 already available across the province.

Schools throughout B.C. will get a boost now that more funding is available for upgrades.
