What Will Safe Streets for All Mean Under Secretary Duffy? – StreetsBlog USA
By Kea Wilson
Applications are about to open for one of America's signature safety programs — just days after Trump administration officials signaled their opposition to funding life-saving infrastructure for cyclists and pedestrians.
According to a document obtained by Streetsblog, the U.S. Department of Transportation will, by the end of March, begin the application process for the Safe Streets and Roads for All discretionary program. Communities will be granted just 90 days to submit their applications, an unusually short time frame, especially for small communities with fewer resources to navigate complex federal applications.
Colloquially known as SS4A, transportation officials across the country have competed for grants from the $5 billion program created under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law in 2021. Since then, it has funded hundreds of complete streets projects, road diets, and safety action plans across the country.
