Community Planning Grants
Community Planning grants support and encourage communities to re-think traditionally designed neighbourhoods to improve connectivity for walking, cycling and rolling. Between 2008 and 2010, BCRPA and the Union of BC Municipalities funded 24 local governments to create active transportation plans.

Aboriginal Community Planning Grants
Fifteen aboriginal communities were awarded grants to improve the health and well-being of residents by supporting community planning for activities that will increase active transportation through improvements in the built environment. Many of the projects focused on trail improvements which link the residential, commercial and natural areas of the community.
