Asia-Pacific Gateway and Corridor Initiative
- Asia-Pacific Gateway and Corridor Initiative
The Asia-Pacific Gateway and Corridor is a system of transportation infrastructure, including British Columbia Lower Mainland and Prince Rupert ports, road and rail connections that reach across Western Canada and into the economic heartlands of North America, as well as major airports and border crossings.
The Asia-Pacific Gateway and Corridor Initiative is an integrated set of federal government investment and policy measures focused on trade with the Asia-Pacific Region. Its mission is to establish Canada’s Asia-Pacific Gateway and Corridor as the best transportation network facilitating global supply chains between North America and Asia.
The Asia-Pacific Gateway and Corridor Initiative is one of three gateway projects initiated by the government. The others are the Ontario-Quebec Continental Gateway and Trade Corridor and the Atlantic Gateway. All three were created under the National Policy Framework for Strategic Gateways and Trade Corridors.
