The Ontario government is investing $983,894 to help renew and rehabilitate critical infrastructure in Township of Uxbridge.
The province recently announced a funding of $879,000 to renew ageing infrastructure in the Township of Scugog (see below).
The funding to Uxbridge will be delivered through the 2026 Ontario Community Infrastructure Fund (OCIF) as part of the government’s more than $200 billion capital plan to protect Ontario by building key public infrastructure that will strengthen the economy and keep workers on the job in the face of tariffs and economic uncertainty.
“The Ontario government’s $983,894 investment through the 2026 Ontario Community Infrastructure Fund (OCIF) is helping small, rural, communities like Uxbridge build and renew the critical infrastructure they rely on every day,” said Peter Bethlenfalvy, MPP for Pickering-Uxbridge. “These projects keep people working, strengthen local economies, and ensure Ontario remains strong and competitive for years to come.”
“We’re grateful to the Government of Ontario for this investment through the Ontario Community Infrastructure Fund. These funds make a real difference in keeping our infrastructure in great shape and helping us serve the day-to-day needs of our residents. It’s great to see the Province’s ongoing support for small and rural communities like ours. I also want to give a big thank you to our MPP, Peter Bethlenfalvy, for his continued support and advocacy for Uxbridge,” said Dave Barton, Mayor of Uxbridge.
The OCIF provides funding for local infrastructure projects in municipalities with populations under 100,000, rural and northern municipalities, as well as for Local Services Boards that own water or wastewater systems.
