The project seeks to create a comprehensive transportation safety action plan that will incorporate a data-driven approach for identifying and addressing the most pressing safety needs in town

The U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration awarded a $400,000 Project Grant under the Safe Streets and Roads for All (CFDA 20.939) program to the Town of Greenwich, CT. The grant will fund the creation of a comprehensive transportation safety action plan that incorporates a data-driven approach to identify and address the town's most pressing safety needs. The plan aims to reduce and eventually eliminate fatal and serious injury crashes, while also working towards a transportation network that helps the public feel safer moving around town by any mode. The project will involve developing a toolbox using Complete Streets principles that the town can utilize both now and in the future, as well as creating concept plans for some of the highest-need areas. The grant project has an award date of October 30, 2024 and a target completion date of December 31, 2026.
