This image highlights the major project sign elements. The elements include:
- One of six icons selected based on federal funding stream. See Digital sign options page for guidance on which to use.
- Project information panel comprising English and French project title and total eligible costs from funding letter or announcement).
- Background based on community where infrastructure will be located – urban, rural or northern community.
- All funding partner logos, Canada wordmark at far left, community at centre and province/territory at far right.
The actual image depicts a sample project sign with a green infrastructure icon.
The sign's design also includes the urban community background, and the following information (English text on the left-hand side of the textbox, French to the right):
- Project title: Water Treatment Plant
- Total eligible cost: $2.1 M
- Each sign will require four main components – one of the three backgrounds, one of the six icons, a project information panel and the logos of the funding partners.
- Sign backgrounds are selected based on the type of community – urban, rural or northern communities.
- The thematic icon is to reflect the main federal infrastructure funding stream – green infrastructure, public transit, social infrastructure, rural and northern infrastructure, trade and transportation, and a general municipal infrastructure icon for instances where the project does not easily tie to one of the main funding streams. To help guide the selection of the right icon, a table that links project categories to the five main funding streams is available in Annex A.
- Project information on the sign is to include the project name and the combined total estimated eligible project costs (from the funding approval letter and announcement). Sample signs are available in the sections Multi-partner sign examples and Federal government-only sign examples and guidance on use.
- The funding recognition bar is to include a single logo of each funding partner regardless of the proportion of their contributions. Logos are to be of equal size and prominence with the Government of Canada wordmark on the far left, the province/territory logo on the far right, and the additional contributor in the centre.
