Description
The 2026 Tribal Transportation Program Safety Fund provides funding to Tribes for transportation safety projects. The program has four categories: Safety Plans, Data Assessment, Improvement, and Analysis, Systemic Roadway Departure Countermeasures, and Infrastructure Improvement. Eligible projects include the development of transportation safety plans, data assessment and analysis, and the implementation of safety countermeasures. The program aims to reduce transportation-related fatalities and serious injuries in Tribal communities.
Some key points to consider:
• The program has a streamlined application process for certain categories.
• Applicants must demonstrate a need for the project and provide data to support their application.
• The program prioritizes projects that address safety needs on facilities owned by Tribes or the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
• Applicants must provide a detailed project narrative and supporting documentation.
• The program has a competitive selection process, and awards are based on the merits of the application.
