Pembroke and Renfrew will get a transit funding increase.
John Yakabuski, MPP for Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke says 107 municipalities will be able to use a two cents per litre gas tax towards transit.
He says this continues to provide funding for transit and releases that burden on certain municipalities.
