Comprehensive Safety Action Plan - Comment Section
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) published a notice of funding opportunity for the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Discretionary Grant (FY 2022-23). This program provides funding for both planning and implementation of infrastructure and initiatives to support planning, infrastructure, behavioral, and operational initiatives to prevent death and serious injury on roads and streets involving all roadway users. There are two types of grants available under the SS4A program: Action Plan Grant and Implementation Grant. The Capital Region Planning Commission (CRPC) has received an Action Plan Grant and hired a consultant to help develop a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan (CSAP) that meets the eligibility requirements of an Action Plan set forth in the SS4A Grant program. Importantly, the resulting CSAP will need to meet the specified program criteria required to pursue future Implementation/Demonstration Grants in the upcoming funding cycles.
