The project, which is scheduled for completion by March 2, 2028, provides funding to support and enhance an action plan and conduct supplemental planning and demonstration activities aligned with the SS4A program's mandate to prevent roadway fatalities and serious injuries within the tribal community.

As a federally recognized Native American tribe located on the Lake Traverse Reservation in northeast South Dakota, the Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate will utilize these grant funds to conduct planning and development activities, including stakeholder engagement and data analysis, to identify targeted safety strategies benefiting all road users. This award reflects the program's emphasis on supporting tribal government initiatives to advance comprehensive transportation safety planning and addresses critical public safety needs within the reservation community.
