The City of Cresson received a $140,000 Project Grant award on September 3, 2025, from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) under the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) program (CFDA 20.939). The grant funds the development of a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan for Cresson, Texas, designed to prevent roadway fatalities and serious injuries through planning, data analysis, and stakeholder engagement. The project will be completed by September 3, 2027, and supports the city's efforts to implement evidence-based safety strategies benefiting all road users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, and motorists.

The SS4A program, established through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, is administered by FHWA to support regional, local, and tribal initiatives in advancing transportation safety. Cresson's award falls within the planning and demonstration grant category, which typically ranges from $100,000 to $5 million and supports activities such as comprehensive safety action plan development and targeted infrastructure improvements. Upon award announcement, the city will have up to twelve months to finalize the grant agreement and begin executing the funded safety planning activities.
