Federal Grant Award Summary

The City of Shakopee received a $320,000 Project Grant from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) under the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) program (CFDA 20.939), awarded on December 5, 2025. The award supports the development of a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan and completion of critical transportation safety planning activities through February 5, 2028. Specifically, the City will conduct a comprehensive intersection control audit of its current traffic management system, establish a policy framework for low-volume intersection control management, and develop a detailed safety analysis for a school corridor providing access to three educational facilities in Shakopee, Minnesota.

These deliverables align with the SS4A program's objective to prevent roadway fatalities and serious injuries through comprehensive safety planning and infrastructure assessment. The project enables local government stakeholders to address transportation safety systematically, with particular focus on vulnerable road users such as students accessing school facilities. The funding supports the planning and analysis activities that form the foundation for subsequent safety infrastructure improvements and strategic transportation management decisions.
