“A program review identified several issues affecting transparency, effectiveness, and long‑term planning. It found that the program’s structure did not support equitable distribution, efficient project delivery, or effective forward planning, and lacked clearly defined eligibility requirements.”
The Department of Transportation and Infrastructure has released a statement to Bayfm News, in light of changes to the Multi-Year Capital Works (MYCW) Program, meaning larger communities like Corner Brook will get funding for bug projects, but instead of three years, it will now have to be stretched out over four years. The statement says that a “program review identified several issues affecting transparency, effectiveness, and long‑term planning. It found that the program’s structure did not support equitable distribution, efficient project delivery, or effective forward planning, and lacked clearly defined eligibility requirements.”
Under the program, funding has been calculated at $233.12 per person, based on 2021 Census data, and is contingent on sufficient provincial funding in the 2027–28 budget.
