The County of Kauai received a $200,000 Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration under the Safe Streets and Roads for All (CFDA #20.939) program. This grant will fund the development of a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan for the county, with the goal of reducing fatal and serious injury crashes involving all road users including pedestrians, bicyclists, public transit riders, and motorists. The award has a performance period from May 21, 2024 to May 21, 2026. The county will use the grant to conduct data analysis, stakeholder engagement, and feasibility studies to identify and prioritize safety improvements across Kauai's transportation network. This aligns with the SS4A program's purpose of supporting data-driven safety planning and implementation to enhance overall roadway safety and eliminate fatalities and serious injuries.
