This award will be used by clallam county to develop a comprehensive safety action plan

Clallam County received a $209,040 Project Grant from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) under the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) program (CFDA 20.939) on September 19, 2025, for development of a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan. The project, with an ultimate completion date of September 19, 2028, will be performed in Port Angeles, Washington. This planning grant will enable Clallam County to conduct the foundational activities necessary to address roadway fatalities and serious injuries within its jurisdiction through systematic data analysis, stakeholder engagement, and safety strategy development.

Under the SS4A program, which was established through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the county will utilize grant funds to support planning and design activities integral to creating a comprehensive safety framework. The resulting Comprehensive Safety Action Plan will identify targeted infrastructure and behavioral safety strategies benefiting all road users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, and motorists. This planning phase positions Clallam County to potentially pursue subsequent implementation funding to execute the strategies and projects identified in the completed safety action plan.
