Transportation department opens competitive program for projects to improve high-crash areas.
The Department of Transportation (DOT) has opened applications for the competitive grant program Safe Streets and Roads for All. Cities, towns, tribal governments, and other infrastructure planning organizations are welcome to apply for funding made available for roadway safety, totaling over $1 billion. The funding was provided under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and its distribution will prioritize the improvement of high-crash areas around the country.
“The crisis of traffic deaths on our nation’s roadways demands urgent and sustained action by us all,” said Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. “With our Safe Streets and Roads for All program, we are helping communities across the country save lives by making their roads safer.”
