Trucking leading - Canada - In freight/efficient transportation projects

OTTAWA,BC,Can -Truck News -8 May 2006: -- Five new projects designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the freight transportation sector, including another two trucking-related ventures, have approved for the eighth round of funding under Transport Canada’s Freight Sustainability Demonstration Program... Fredericton-based Sunbury Transport joins the list of trucking carriers to participate in the program, which provides financial assistance to any truck, or intermodal freight company that can make an environmentally-sound case for it... Also selected is Freight Wing Inc., which will demonstrate to Canadian trucking fleets the potential of aerodynamic trailer attachments to reduce fuel consumption... Trucking-related proposals already approved and underway include: fuel-efficiency training programs, testing of anti-idling units, adoption of fuel-saving technology, and changes to existing equipment to more environmentally friendly gear... (Picture: More carriers are getting in line to show Ottawa how environmentally- friendly they can be. The government cash doesn't hurt either)
