Canadian Prime Minister Announces Infrastructure Funding in Brampton
加拿大總理於賓頓市宣布基礎設施撥款
Brampton, one of Canada’s fastest-growing cities, is undergoing a major urban transformation.
賓頓市是加拿大成長最快的城市之一,正在經歷重大的都市轉型。
Recently, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced significant federal investments to help the city manage its rapid population growth.
近日,總理賈斯丁·杜魯道宣布了重大聯邦投資計畫,以協助該市因應人口的迅速增長。
A centerpiece of this effort was the $114 million Housing Accelerator Fund, aimed at fast-tracking 3,150 residential units and supporting 24,000 future homes.
這項努力的核心是高達一億一千四百萬加幣的住房加速基金,旨在加快三千一百五十個住宅單位的建造,並支援未來二萬四千個家庭的住房需求。
To secure these funds, the city committed to zoning reforms, including allowing fourplexes near transit hubs.
為了獲得這些資金,該市承諾進行分區改革,包括允許在交通樞紐附近興建四拼式住宅。
Beyond housing, Brampton has prioritized transit.
在住房以外,賓頓市也優先考量大眾運輸。
Through the Canada Public Transit Fund, the city will receive over $106 million annually for infrastructure upgrades.
透過加拿大公共運輸基金,該市每年將獲得超過一億零六百萬加幣的基礎設施升級補助。
Additionally, a $183 million investment, supported by federal, provincial, and municipal contributions, will bring 136 new buses—including zero-emission vehicles—to the transit fleet.
此外,一項由聯邦、省級和市政政府共同支持的一億八千三百萬加幣投資,將為公車車隊引進一百三十六輛新公車,其中包括零排放車輛。
By linking federal funding to municipal policy reforms, the government aims to combat suburban sprawl and improve housing affordability.
透過將聯邦資金與市政政策改革掛鉤,政府旨在抑制市郊蔓延並提升住房負擔能力。
As Brampton approaches a projected population of 1 million by 2051, these investments are vital for building a city that connects residents efficiently to jobs and essential services, ensuring a higher quality of life for all.
隨著賓頓市預計在二〇五一年人口達到一百萬,這些投資對於建構一個能將居民高效地與工作及基本服務連結起來的城市至關重要,並確保所有人皆能享有更高的生活品質。
