Backgrounder: New Brunswick’s 2019‒20 federal Gas Tax Fund allocations

Backgrounder

The Government of Canada has delivered the first of two $22.5 million federal Gas Tax Fund (GTF) installments to New Brunswick for the 2019-20 fiscal year. The funding will flow to the following 104 communities. It also includes a share for projects in unincorporated areas.

In addition to the regular installments, New Brunswick communities will benefit this year from a top-up to their funding, as announced in Budget 2019. This top-up will accelerate progress and maximize every opportunity to ensure that Canadians in every community across the country continue to see real and timely results in the renewal of public infrastructure.

The GTF will provide New Brunswick with over $92 million this fiscal year for local infrastructure projects.

The following table indicates the 2019-20 federal GTF allocation and Budget 2019 top-up amount for New Brunswick’s communities.Footnote1
