Community Economic Recovery Infrastructure Program

Communities across British Columbia continue to invest in infrastructure as a foundation for economic recovery, local job creation, and long-term resilience. The Community Economic Recovery Infrastructure Program is designed to support projects that strengthen local economies by improving the physical assets communities rely on, from transportation and public-use facilities to infrastructure that enables business activity and tourism.

Delivered by the Government of British Columbia, this program provides non-repayable funding to help communities move forward with infrastructure projects that can stimulate economic activity and support recovery efforts. Funding levels vary depending on the scope and impact of each project, making it suitable for both smaller upgrades and more substantial infrastructure initiatives. While the program is not limited to a single industry, it is particularly relevant for projects that benefit multiple sectors and create broad community-level economic benefits.

For businesses, local governments, and community partners involved in planning or delivering infrastructure projects, this program can help bridge funding gaps and make important investments more feasible. Projects supported through this initiative are typically aligned with regional economic priorities and designed to deliver lasting value beyond short-term recovery. For those exploring infrastructure funding opportunities in British Columbia, reviewing the program’s objectives, requirements, and application process in more detail can help determine whether this funding aligns with your project plans.
