Highways Programs

Good highway infrastructure is critical for not only economic health but for the safety of all Canadians. The Surface Infrastructure Programs Directorate (Highways) assists in providing the best surface transportation system for Canada and Canadians.

Although most highway matters are a provincial responsibility, Surface Program's role is to work closely with provinces and territories as well as international partners to ensure that the mobility of people and goods across Canada continues; and the quality of life and expansion of our economy is enhanced by the surface transportation system.

Funding programs are designed to improve the national highway system by means of financial contributions to Provinces and Territories, Municipalities and private sector companies. Without the significant financial contribution of the federal government, provinces and territories, municipalities and private companies would not be able to initiate a proper amount of highways project in order to obtain a safe, effective and efficient highway system.

Employees of the Surface Infrastructure Programs manage highway projects across the Canada. They have several tools to manage with diligence the funding programs approved by our government.
