The Southwest Washington Regional Transportation Council was awarded a $300,000 Project Grant from the Federal Highway Administration's Safe Streets and Roads for All (CFDA 20.939) program on July 18, 2024. The funding will support the development of a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan to improve roadway safety in the Southwest Washington Gorge region through June 2027.

The Council has also received sub-awards through the Washington State Department of Transportation to provide additional transportation planning services, including developing local road safety plans, updating the regional Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) architecture, analyzing and recommending near-term freeway improvements in the Vancouver region, and creating an Active Transportation Plan for pedestrian, bicycle, and transit modes. These sub-awards leverage federal funding to support the Council's broader transportation planning responsibilities for Clark County.
